A Pause in Blue captures a small, fleeting moment in the garden—a yellow butterfly resting among the blue-violet blooms of spiderwort.
Inspired by my own photograph of spiderwort growing here in East Texas, I paired the brilliant blue flowers with a butterfly drawn and painted in acrylic paint markers. The bold black lines and bright colors give this little painting an illustrative, almost storybook quality that I especially enjoy when working with paint markers.
I love noticing the small visitors that appear among the flowers. Sometimes they stay only for a moment before moving on, and A Pause in Blue is my way of holding onto one of those quiet garden moments a little longer.
This is an original, hand-drawn and hand-painted miniature artwork, not a print. The expressive lines and small variations are part of the character of the original piece.
Perfect for a small frame, shelf display, gallery wall, nature lover, butterfly lover, or collector of original miniature art.
