Sketchbook - Photo play stencils

I've the idea of creating stencils of different types of insects and bugs and placing them on photo paper while exposing. These pages present my testers for this technique.

Sketchbook - Painting test page

These are a couple of test paintings in practice for a triptych a plan to make from my butterflies. The test is purely to see how well I could work with a new water colour palette.

Butterfly Release

These are the latest images I took of my butterflies upon releasing them. Three had flown away too quickly for me to capture any images, but two of them had lingered around the grassy area of my garden.
 I recently purchased more caterpillars as to improve the current work I already have.
