The swallowtail butterfly is just the right colour with this gorgeous flower. Beautiful artwork and I can't tell the little imp drew on it either!

Very Nice. Like the color of the Marigold and how you stood out the butterfly on it. your child will follow in your foot steps let her work with you have a page for her to work on, she will feel like she is drawing with mommy you did a good cover up job good work

Hey Cynthia it's a beautiful oil pastel and that's probably what attracted your child. I guess art runs in the family, lol !

Very nice warm colours! Keep it in a safe place to show to your 4 year old when she grows up as the collaborative work of 2 of you!

Thank you for commenting on my photos which led me here to your work. This is gorgeous!

Clive Ballard 15 Mar 2006

Great pictures. Great tectures and on this picture the butterfly looks almost real. Your 4 year old obviously did no long lasting harm. I wish I could create my pictures with paint, but not very good at it. As you say it takes a long time and I get impatient. Better stick to photography.

Wonderful painting, Cynthia - and no pencil visible!

erika brodie 13 Mar 2006

I totally understand you whole description on this page...I have 3 children and am hoping to have a studio this summer so I don't have to have everything on top of everything else...the paint takes a long time to dry and still pencil...man...my son just diminished a watercolor I did the other day and there is no fixing it..he's two and climbs up everything like a monkey....anywho...this is still gordegous and you did a very nice job with the texture of the flower....looks surreal...
