Three butterflies stacked down the sheet: a purple one with pink spots at the top, an orange and blue one in the middle, and a pale blue one with black spots at the bottom. Each is drawn in a fine line over the wash, and the whole group sits in a lilac haze that drips down the right side. It is a portrait format and one of my most popular prints for a bedroom. The blue and red butterflies and the colourful butterfly are the other two.
Why it is a limited edition
Each print is made in an edition of 150, and I sign and number every copy in pencil under the image. The edition is small so that every copy can be made properly: the file is scanned from the painting itself, printed on museum-quality cotton paper with archival pigment inks, compared with the original in daylight and corrected until the colours match, and only then signed. When the last copy is sold, the edition closes for good.

The frame is not included unless the option says Framed Canvas. Not sure which size fits your wall? Write to me with the width of the furniture under it and I will suggest one. Reproduction rights remain with the artist.

We loved our last purchase so much – we had to come back for another one! The blue and purple butterflies are gorgeous and just what we were looking for (and thank you again for including a gift!). We also appreciate how quickly it arrived. 🙂
