Sunday Sketches

There is something magical about butterflies.

I was doubly fascinated watching my 16 month old grandson follow this tiger swallowtail as it lighted around the yard.

  4. I totally agree with you. I used to snap photos of different butterflies left and right. There seem to be less of a variety within the state I live in now. Hmm. Regardless, beautiful watercolour. You're brilliant. :)

  5. Beautiful butterfly....we had chrysalis in the classroom last year...the children and I were transfixed for ages watching butterflies emerge and then drying off their wings, before finally letting them fly off...
