ButterflyColored pencil on black paper, 6″x9″

Late last night I finished the butterfly drawing.  It is 6″x9″ colored pencil on black paper, created for the COLORED PENCIL Magazine July 2012 Challenge, using their reference photo.

A monarch butterfly rests on the clustered blooms of a plant, waiting for the sun to rise.

This is the just prior WIP, with the butterfly finished, but not the background.  Click the project tag below to see all the WIP.
