Monarch Butterfly watercolor batik on ginwashi rice paper, by Conni Schaftenaar
Monarchs are among my favorite butterflies - my brother and I collected butterflies and moths as kids, and my amazing Mom would mount them for us. We would find Monarch larvae and gather milkweed blossoms and leaves and watch them make their beautiful chrysalises and morph into these brilliant orange beings.
