Over the past few months, I have been photographing butterflies for the “Beautifully Broken” Series at various Butterfly Pavilions including the Denver Butterfly Pavilion, Butterfly World in Ft. Lauderdale and The Butterfly Conservatory in Key West.

When I started out with this idea to paint unique butterflies to represent the uniqueness in all of us, I envisioned I’d be painting full butterflies. It wasn’t until spending hours at these pavilions witnessing each and every perfectly unique butterfly that I noticed a peculiar thing - nearly each one was broken. Still flying strong as ever but tattered. This is such a beautiful depiction of the inevitable pains we go through in life. I want each mini butterfly to serve as a reminder of your self worth no matter what you have been through in your life that has your wings a little broken.

Each mini will be displayed next to a small note that has been written from the purchaser (you) to whoever it is for to serve as a little reminder of self worth. You will see the area to write this description in the checkout section.

Each mini is 6x6” oil on panel and will come in a gold frame. This can be easily swapped if desired.
