Monarch - Art Print

Monarch (2018, watercolor)

The apparent delicacy of a butterfly belies the strength of the Monarch, which
undertakes one of the greatest migrations of any insect. It is reliant on milkweed, so farming, urban development, and pesticides have reduced this familiar butterfly to a mere remnant of its abundance before humans took over so much of the planet. The painting honors its delicate beauty.
