Hi folks... some gorgeous butterflies over on the LIM site...
might not have time to come visit you all
but the work is fabulous as usual.
The background was made yesterday using the TH water colour technique with stamps and Adirondack Dye inks and was about to be thrown into the bits box (one of many :)
when I thought this could be an English summer meadow
so I put a butterfly in it :)
Ok so you have to use your imagination!
but for me,
it's clover, buttercups, grass in seed, wild thyme and bell flower etc.
all swaying in a light summer breeze...
I want to be there.. hurry up summer.

This is what you said above! I don't understand it...could you elaborate for a thicko like me!!! Please!!
The background is a wild flower meadow. No doubt about it!
To me it is a field of Field Buttercups, with many other gorgeous flowers which grow with them. Then the sheep which are are just off-side will come along any second and start munching. They will only eat the grasses in between the Field Buttercups...phewww, your flower meadow is safe.
Field Buttercups are quite tall, as you probably know and the sheep sink in, up to their tummies; I saw this in Wales a few years ago and your art work reminded me of it.
Sorry for the ramble!

Oh, forgot to say the butterfly is gorgeous. With all this rubbish about sheep I forgot the butterfly...it is really stunning. It pops of the page beautifully with all those layers. Very clever!!!!

That spattered background is really reminiscent of the summer meadow and the butterfly is gorgeous with its layers.

Hi Sue, I can see it all, sweeping meadow, flowers gently blowing in the breeze....lady sitting painting, chocolate in hand... eeekk, no wrong image, do fancy some chocolate right now, shouldn't have started it. LOL

Suzy this is absolutely stunning and I know exactly what you mean about the summer meadow. My thoughts were the same when I saw it. Wish I'd had time to play along with that challenge 'cos butterlies (and dragonflies) are my favourite things.
Beautiful work!
