A celebration on canvas, the artist expresses freedom and life in this piece with a lone butterfly. In full flight, the effervescent insect exudes life and joy in its multihued form. This celebration of watercolor is a boundless scheme of pigments subtly selected and painted to manifest the energy and movement of the butterfly's flight. Set against a dark backdrop, the show-stopping subject comes to life as the artist strategically uses dark hues to create a backlight against the butterfly, incidentally painting it into the spotlight of the painting. With more attention to color and texture rather than detail, the subject is a vibrant ghost, both loud and ever-present while simultaneously ready to flutter away from one's grasp.
