Painting - Pure Watercolor, Pen And Ink On Antique Pages
Description
In an effort to rescue an ancient treasure, an 1884 "Cyclopedia Of Universal Knowledge" from my husband's family. One page at a time, these books have been given new life as works of Art. This painting, quite an accidental painting. The butterfly shape just appeared amid the coral splatters.. I refined the coral splatter into a rose and left the butterfly plain and unadorned with markings. Adding leaves and a few splashes of blue completed the work.
A special THANKS to the following Fine Arr America groups for featuring this painting:

Another contest...another vote, Maria! I love how the butterfly “ emerged” and very little was done to complete the painting!...truly Inspired! Voted!

Love the feel of these paintings on print. I am a poet as well as an artist and get flack from art guilds from not submitting original but I cannot once I embed my poems on the piece in Photoshop and I will not compromise the piece as the poems become a part of the piece. Love what you have done here. It is amazing to me how when our work is in God's hand's thing just appear in our work!

Love this gallery of pages from the cyclopedia and this one in particular caught my eye with the simple butterfly and lovely colors.

Wow Maria, this art is so beautiful and splendid!! i believe the accidental butterfly is not really an accident after all but a message from the higher power presented onto your painting by itself. it is a lovely transformation!! L/F
