"La Mariposa de Otoño" watercolor, 8.5 hours. (14in x 18in)
The inspiration for this piece came from a poem by Pablo Neruda, which shares the name of the piece. I enjoyed the symbolism and colors in the poem and wanted to bring it to life. I also wanted to practice surrealism and watercolors, two subjects I lack in. I found the piece rather easy to complete, though I would like to add more detail to the butterflies. I was originally hesitant on the colors for the clock, but I am glad I chose the yellow I did. my favorite part of the piece is the sunset sky, because I think I captured the texture effectively.
