Fleeting Moment - Completed
I absolutely love the shiney metallic blue of this butterfly and it is a shame that this is the only photograph I got of it at the Butterfly Gardens in Niagara Falls, Canada. I suppose that this means I will have to make a trip back someday to get more photographs!!

I never thought I would enjoy painting butterflies so much (not sure why.... perhaps it was the greens of the plants or so just something about their delicateness) but I am having a total blast painting them.
