Butterfly by artsygang

Butterfly

Day 10/100
Had another go at painting one of my photographs. I didn't get the butterfly shape quite right nor its angle, but quite enjoyed having a try and liked stippling in the pink flowers with an almost dry brush.

Maybe I should have tried to draw it first, but the thought of holding a pencil and drawing terrifies me, so maybe not LOL

@casablanca This is insane!!!! Wonderful skills!!! Remove the photo and not even you will know that the butterfly isn't precisely the same. For the exact reproduction of the creature, you've got the photo already. You are wonderful. I am looking forward to your coming pieces. Keep up the spirit.

@casablanca I wouldn’t know where to start. This is a great challenge that you have set yourself and got another fab result.

@casablanca the flowers are lovely. All round a super result. I agree with Monika - remove the photo, don't make the comparison.

Way better than I could do

@monikozi I never thought of that - the photograph is the representation, the painting the interpretation. Thank you!

@salza Thanks so much, I think you are right. Today I only posted the painting!
