    Love it, I’m still mesmerised by butterflies like when I was a little kid. There’s just something about them.

    Beautiful! It paints such a lovely image in your mind. I don’t mind butterflies, they are very beautiful. On the other hand a have a big phobia of moths!

      Strange how the two creatures are alike and yet apart.

    Oh this is gorgeous, Jaya, I’d never thought about butterflies in that way but you’re so right, they are JUST like stained glass. Flying works of art. What a beautiful way to think about them, thank you!

    Lovely as always! Definitely took me back to those long summers as a kid running through the backyard with outstretched hands, just itching to hold one of those precious creatures before letting it go again.

    Ooooh I like this one! YESSS! I always thought that butterflies had an interesting design for wings and never thought of it being like stained glass until you mentioned it. Great job with this piece!
