Artist's Comments

Another butterfly from my bobbin-lace butterfly series... OK, here I admit that its wings are really done by two different colours... It was impossible to get the same colour of the cotton when I ran out of it... :x As soon as I finished my work, the very same colour I wanted looked at me from every window - do you know Murphy's laws ("if anything can go wrong, it IS going wrong")? Sorry for this...


The other butterflies of the series:

The White Butterfly
The Night Moth
The Green Butterfly
The Blue Butterfly
The Light Blue Butterfly
The Sphinx
The Saturniid
The Parnassian
The Vanessa

you have to get the same dye lot or it will never ever be the same. I like the variation. This looks like it took a lot of work. Fascinating.

Don't be sorry; I like the two-colored look. I'd like to see a multi-colored butterfly, where you use thread that varies in color. This whole series is amazing and admirable. I know I'd never have the patience to make even one!

The snake may shed his skin, but he's still a snake.

Making fun of the powerful is Bravery, because they can make you pay for what you say. This is why Satire is the weapon of the Clever Courageous. Making fun of someone weaker than you are, that is merely Cowardice.
