I found this tatty old painting at a car boot sale in the summer. you can see a lot more detail since i cleaned it with meths & a brillo pad.
the lady looks a bit wistful & i thought the butterfly would cheer her up a bit

after brain storming ive come up with my latest work,

its called "changeling". it depicts that point in time when all butterflies transform from a beetle into beautiful imago.

aah no! :shock: what was i thinking its pupa not a beetle, i new something was wrong,
dam, should have consulted someone on the site beforehand! :(

don't worry geniculata... these insects have a well complicated lifestyle so we all get it a bit Pete Tong from time to time innit.

i was at a jumble sale this morning & found this scruffy oil-painting wedged between a Blue Peter annual and an abdominizer.

the frame should be worth more than the 25p i paid !! after a brisk rub down with the old brillo pad ( the painting not me !! ) the grime disappeared to reveal this dim looking chick.

at first there seemed to be some kind of pearl in her ear-hole but further scrubbing revealed that it was a butterfly.
