The Insectarium II, An Exercise in Blue

Description

Painted on A1 cold pressed watercolour paper and measuring approximately 70 x 70 cm unframed.  Created using watercolour, pencil, ink and 23.5Karat gold leaf.

I adore painting insects, I find them absolutely fascinating, and confining myself to butterflies and moths within a specific colour theme both challenged me and provided an opportunity to expand my knowledge of these much underestimated cohabiters of ours.

I also accept commissions, so if you’re looking for a different colour scheme, do get in touch!  Other similar examples of my work can be found on my website.
