Final
Butterfly completed, now on to the background.
MONARCH
Pollinators, and especially Monarch butterflies, are important to me. I’ve spent years building and maintaining pollinator gardens at The Nature Conservancy’s Hauser Nature Center, and nothing makes me happier than seeing the monarchs gathered there every fall. There’s something so compelling about the brilliant orange colors, which are especially striking on a glass-on-glass piece like this.
*I leaned this piece on a wired grid fence, and you can see it behind the glass. That is not part of the finished piece.
