Let Our Art be Free

Butterflies are one of my favorite subjects.They remind me of bright colors, change, freedom and of course the transitory nature of life.  When I pursue art I remind myself to be free of expectations and not to struggle for perfection; instead to enjoy and savor the entire process.

The layers on this page have been done on the second background page that I did two years ago. I did the butterflies using modeling paste, watercolor and glitter. More experiments on handwriting.




Thank you for visiting and have a great weekend
