| Butterfly Wallpaper watercolor |
of butterflies, dragonflies and insects of all kinds are so very beautiful....patterny, colorful and sometimes iridescent. On a day when painting something large is out of the question due to time restraints, small insect paintings can keep your brushes wet and in practice. For me, even a day without painting seems to increase painting trepidation...the fear of white canvas or paper. For these small works, I buy thrift store frames and design the paintings around the frame size. Granted, this way of working is not really natural, due to size restrictions. I liken it to illustration, where the size and dimensions of the work are predetermined. Nevertheless, it is a fun and freeing exercise.....
take flight.
