i collect dead butterflies, i finally found a use for them. it's in a frame, the butterfly being pressed by the glass. it's a swallow-tailed yellow tiger, my favorite. the flowers are on tracing paper, and i did trace them- from a wedding flower ad in a wedding magazine.

and a bucket of love to greenbear thank you for the feature~

Vivid color and energetic use of various media makes this the most visually appealing butterfly display I've ever seen.

Insanely beautiful, and as the Featured description says, your use of various media makes everything so much more appealing. At first I thought it was all watercolor but your use of a dead butterfly and the tracings from the wedding magazine are amazing. I think the man looks nice too. Will favorite.
