A red admiral butterfly on a white variety of Liatris (blazing star) from my yard this week. This is a painted over photo using Corel Painter.

Its nice to see the same species over the other side of that big 'ole pond as we get over here on our little island! I see these in my town garden on a sunny day.

Lovely artwork Jerry.

Very colorful Jerry --- you're fortunate to have such attractive subjects flitting through your garden! That's especially nice brushwork on the antennae :wink:

I especially like the repetition of whites in your brushwork on the butterfly and echoed in the flower. Very pretty.
