Butterfly Garden, Florida Oil Painting by Judy Batterson, Florida Artist

We started a butterfly garden in the corner of our back yard a year ago. Saving the monarchs! And learning many life lessons as we watch caterpillars eat the milkweed. As more butterflies appear, the lesson of never losing hope stands out. Today a caterpillar and tomorrow a beautiful butterfly! Never know what the future holds!

Butterfly Garden, Impressionistic Painting by Judy Batterson, Florida Artist

So much fun painting with kids in our butterfly garden! We did acrylic paintings, layering in impressionistic style while trying to catch the sun on the salvia. Butterflies fluttered nearby. I always use acrylics with children because water is always on hand. I had as much fun as they did. We filled our canvases and souls with color! 12 x 12" acrylic on canvas.
