Daily Painting - Butterfly

“Butterfly 1” oil 5” x 7”
This is one of the series of butterflies I’ve been painting. This one’s family is Appias Nero and is found in the Philippines. What a subtle, luminous beauty. I really enjoy painting these gorgeous creatures and spend about 1 ½ hours on them. The veining in the wings takes a bit longer even though they are still loosely painted. I’ve painted others but hadn’t photographed them before they sold, I’ll try and keep better records from now on.
