Ecstatic color and whimsy are the major markers of this insect celebration! I was so nervous to paint butterflies so I spent the day at the Butterfly Pavilion studying their colors and movement. I loved weaving the color throughout the piece to depict movement and creation. I thought of how Rumpelstiltskin weaves gold from straw and imagined butterflies being woven from the sunrise colors of my garden.
