Description
This is a digital impressionist style painting I made from my original photo of a variegated Fritillary Butterfly feeding on the nectar of a yellow tickseed plant. These are one of the most common species of butterfly in central Oklahoma and when you do a little research on them it is not hard to figure out why. Five of their chosen host plants and 10 of their nectar plants grow wild in open fields and meadows here in this area, including my own 10 acre plot. Springtime is a flurry of different species of local butterflies on our land and it is a delight to get out and snap photos of them. This orange and brown spotted beauty seemed to be showing off for the camera!
