Butterflies Are Free

BUTTERFLY GARDEN
Watercolor 8x10

A few weeks ago in my Tuesday morning class we painted butterflies in all kinds of settings. I began Butterfly Garden with wet paper and painted in the colors for the flowers, being careful to avoid the butterfly. When all was dry I pulled out flower shapes by painting around them. It is always fun to watch a butterfly flitting around a garden of flowers.
