Superior Lady, watercolour on panel, 14 x 11" (SOLD)

"As part of a series of paintings featuring flowers resting on stones, I painted this American Painted Lady butterfly in place of a blossom. I love the contrast of the delicate orange wings against the heavy, dull-coloured stones. The stones are inspired by pebble beaches on the north shore of Lake Superior. This butterfly is commonly seen in eastern North America, from the subarctic to Mexico, and is tolerant of cold, so can overwinter in the North. A hardy soul!.”
