Butterfly Study

Acrylic on wood panel

Size 5x7 inches

Reference for this one is Dover's wonderful "Animals" book, which offers reference materials for artists in the form of black and white drawings. I decided to just make up the colors in this butterfly instead of looking it up.

30 paintings in 30 days challenge.
Painting this fast, and leaving it less finished feels a little weird to me, but by the end of 30 days I'm sure I'll get the hang of it.
