Description

We took our granddaughter to see a butterfly release at the beautiful Franklin Park Conservatory in Columbus, Ohio. She was thrilled to be there and amazed by the flowers and tremendous variety of butterflies. As she excitedly started to point at one of her favorite butterflies, it actually landed on her finger! Her face lit up like a Christmas tree and I was able to see this wonderful image: a child's pure joy at this special encounter.Her face was, of course, the key element in this painting and I had to get that right, but I had to capture the surprise and excitement of this magic moment. I also loved the flowers and wanted to put i enough of the shapes, the colors, the lights and darks, to suggest the beautiful conservatory setting. I hope looking at this painting makes you smile!~J
