Description graphite on paper

β€œ'Is it possible to become friends with a butterfly?'
'It is if you first become a part of nature. You suppress your presence as a human being, stay very still, and convince yourself that you are a tree or grass or a flower'"

- Haruki Murakami, 1Q84

Why not simply "Butterfly Friend"? It's really lovely, and the quote tells us your inspiration quite clearly. Congrats on the DD!

down to every detail it's gorgeous! my mind wandered and I thought of the work of Richard A Kirk- insects, no eyes shown and such fine details. Of course he works in ink or silverpoint. Metamorphic would be a good name (imho)

Thanks for all your kind comments. I actually would love to do some work in silverpoint in the near future. I have only used it once before, but I really enjoyed it.

I have never used it, do you know of a good site to learn more?

tdylan In reply to EvilScarrlett [2013-08-14 15:27:06 +0000 UTC]

I don't. I had a teacher that let me use his supplies once to try it out, but that's the only time I've used it. I think all you really need is a piece of silver wire, something to hold it with, and a ground to draw on top of. I believe Golden sells a silverpoint ground.

thanks for sharing what you know. I guess a mechanical pencil of different barrels size may hold some wire-
