EDM235 Draw a Butterfly

I saw a photo of this Butterfly in a Magazine on Endangered Flora and Fauna that I get because I support things like the national resources defense council. I thought I would try covering an open spread in my journal using crayons as a resist, and watercolors and micron pens. I am pretty happy with the results, though I need more practice with watercolors.
