Pagancat Gainesboro, TN (Zone 6b) May 15, 2008 9:43 PM Post #4957539 I saw a luna moth earlier this evening - looked like part of it's wing was missing. I thought I'd leave it peace for tonight and see if it was still there in the morning, if so I'll take some pics... would make a lovely painting. They're so ethereal. confident_realm Houston, TX May 19, 2008 7:22 AM Post #4972596 Here's another one. I am doing pairs on 14"sq. canvas and hanging them side by side. I will post a picture when I get them on the wall. Click the image for an enlarged view. Wojisgal Prospect Park, PA May 31, 2008 6:50 PM Post #5032413 What's your medium? It's gorgeous!!

Gourdbeader Toledo, OR (Zone 8b) July 27, 2008 7:47 PM Post #5329353 You know what I think would be pretty would be to paint one of your butterflies on a piece of glass or plexiglass so that it looks like it is flying in space in the room. Wow, I think that give me an idea for one of my projects. Jan
