“Monarch Swarm” is a vibrant watercolor painting by Karan Gerard, capturing the motion and beauty of migrating butterflies in expressive layers.
Just love the look of butterflies swarming. There is mystery and magic and marvelous in how the colors flutter around. The use of rice paper was particularly effective in creating small folds in the paper which add texture to the wings. The artwork has been sealed on both sides with matt finish spray then sealed with Dorland’s wax as a preservative.
