Butterflies for Kenny #3


The silver lining of social distancing is that I actually have time to do some artwork. :-)

Butterflies #3 is a tribute to Bridget Riley, a leading Op art artist.  She's still alive (88) and lives and works in the UK.  

Here's a bit more about her...


Full disclosure, I used pen and ink instead of colored pencils for this one, because I was fairly sure that if I tried to use colored pencils I would end up smearing them. 

Since it was time consuming, I stopped periodically.  When I got to this point, Edward said - "That's it.  Call it done now." 

I wasn't so sure, and I am an off the charts "J" so I had to finish.  And when I did, I realized that he was right.  See if you agree...

Here are links for the book in case you want to join the fun!



And here are my previous butterflies...




Cheers!
