my world, my true

{drawing butterflies}

It’s hard to tell from the picture, but what happened here was that Knox found a dead butterfly (“Let’s take him to his Mommy!”) that he wanted desperately to “play” with. His matching obsession combined with his love for uniting babies and their mommies had him searching for his toy butterfly which matched perfectly it’s real life specimen. Knox decided to try his hand at creating his own butterflies on paper. A few curvy lines and a proud Mama were the end result (and, of course, lots of teeny tiny pieces of butterfly wings scattered around our living room).
