A kaleidoscope of butterflies for #WorldButterflyDay. It’s also #PiDay so I feel the symmetries of this print which I laid out with a compass & some geometric tricks, seems apt.
⠀
There are three each of the orange Isabella’s Longwings (Nymphalidae Eueides isabella), three yellow Eastern tiger swallowtails (Papilio glaucus), and three blue Red-Spotted Purples (Limenitis arthemis astyanax) in this #linocut kaleidoscope.⠀

For #WorldButterflyDay my ridiculously titled “My milkweed brings all the bugs to my yard”
This #linocut #print, on beautiful Japanese papers, is about the #milkweed plant, beloved of the native #pollinators. Well-known for its appeal to monarch butterflies, it is also a favourite of the many different native bumblebees and insects like this small milkweed bug.
