The FORTRESS of SOLITUDE

"So morbid...a sentimental replica of a planet long since vanished..."
~ General Zod

 

She's a papillion...

My bud Mark over at Mark's Rants and Raves recently posted a striking photo of two butterflies. I found it quite inspiring and decided to make it my innaugural painting of my new watercolour set. I'm quite pleased with the result...

Untitled, watercolour on cold press paper, 9" x 12"

I took a little artistic license for composition purposes, but it's fairly faithful to the original. You can view a much larger version of it on my flickr account

VERY nice work, Sean! It's hard to tell your painting apart from the original photo.
