Wings Series
This Wings Series painting features tropical butterflies. Given that there are so many fabulous butterflies in the world, I had to have some way of limiting my choices for the painting. So, as its title suggests, Tropical Wings shows butterflies of the tropics. That’s still a very broad category! I must mention that some of the most spectacular species in this piece are actually moths! Can you find the Madagascar Sunset Moth? (It’s the large one in the upper left.)
Tropical Wings won awards in juried art shows in 2003 and 2004.
