This is a hand digital painting on a photo of a black swallowtail butterfly on oregano flowers in my yard. I used Corel Painter.

Lovely painting Jerry --- doing brushwork on a swallowtail isn't easy as I know from experience!

Lovely painting.

Terrific job, Jerry- brushwork is very pleasing and convincing. I really like the way you did the flowers- very impressionistic.
