Dark Chrysalis 1 - Original Painting

I raise monarchs in the summertime. This was a reference from a photo I captured just hours before breaking free of its chrysalis. The transformation is magical. Colors seem to illuminate when exposed to direct light (though not suggested to display in full time direct sun light to help prevent natural fading).

20in x 20in (1.25in thick)

Original acrylic paint on stretched canvas, sealed with satin archival UV varnished.
