Product Details
Our luxuriously soft blankets are available in two different sizes and feature incredible artwork on the top surface. The bottom surface is white. Our 100% polyester blankets are available in two different styles: plush fleece and sherpa fleece. Plush fleece blankets are soft and fluffy on both sides, whereas sherpa blankets are smooth like a soft sweater on the artwork side (i.e. shorter threads) which provides for a sharper image. Looking for a recommendation? Go with a 60" x 80" plush fleece blanket. It's soft and luxurious on both sides... the artwork looks incredible... and the size is just right for everyone.

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. I also was privileged twice in my life to see a major Monarch migration - tens of thousands of them descended on a wooded path near my home when I was about 10 years old - it was a stunning experience!
I wanted to paint a Monarch and had no good reference photos of my own, so I found a reference photo on Paint My Photo - pmp-art.com, by Bonnie Sitter. You can see her photo at https://pmp-art.com/bonnie-sitter/gallery/30150/monarch-butterfly, and you can find other great reference photos that photographers are willing to share with artists for painting and other art works.

Thank you for visiting my FAA/Pixels gallery! Please note that the FAA watermark you'll see on images does NOT print on anything. My name is Conni Schaftenaar. I have had a life-long love of colorful art but always imagined that I wasn't talented enough to be someone who actually produced art that others liked. I began to learn some techniques from a watercolor instructor back in 2013, and I've been continuing the learning process ever since. I have had much joy in the comments and communications on FAA with other artists about my art, finding out that OTHER PEOPLE actually like my art! It's been a huge confidence booster to me to get that positive feedback, and I really appreciate it. I primarily paint in watercolor on various...
