Description
A butterfly specimen rendered in watercolor displays symmetrical wings of deep black and bright orange with distinctive white patches on the upper wings, centered against a pale cream ground. The scientific precision of the composition and hand-lettered label below evoke the aesthetic of 19th-century natural history illustration, combining scientific documentation with artistic delicacy. Crafted from durable canvas-like poly-poplin and made to order, double-stitched with a cotton webbing strap. The everyday haul, from groceries to the beach, carrying an independent artist's work.
