About this work
A monarch butterfly hovers just above the fingertips of a graceful, outstretched hand, a breath away from landing. The shadows of the hand and of leafy branches fall across a soft lavender-grey wall, crossed by warm streaks of cream and golden sunlight. The butterfly's veined orange wings and white-dotted black edges are painted in fine detail, while the skin tones of the hand are blended softly and realistically. A calm, poetic painting about hope, freedom, transformation and new beginnings. An original 20x30 cm (8x12 in) oil painting, hand-painted on canvas panel (canvas mounted on rigid MDF board), one of a kind; slim and sturdy, it is easy to frame or to display on a small tabletop easel. A meaningful gift for a birthday, a graduation, a new chapter or in memory of a loved one, and an elegant accent for a bedroom, entryway, study or gallery wall.
