Did you realize that the butterfly is an "X" not just in name but form?

I see it, you have such an eye for detail. In a way, perhaps your inner artist is a chrysalis, on its way to becoming a butterfly too ☺

aw...that's sweet....I'm still in my cocoon bc it's very cold outside and I'm too shy to come out of my shell. :)

you're right, I do love it! Is that metallic paint? whatever it is, it fits perfectly for this piece! I love the purple color a lot and the deep gold (?) out the outsides really contrasts well with the glittery white next to it.
Well....yep, this is my favorite one so far now. It just replaced the other one!

Yay! I'm glad you like it! I figured the purple would be right up your alley. I added the glitter watercolor to simulate the Xerces' shimmery wings. And also I like to sneak in metallic or glitter everywhere I can.
Thank you for commenting!

Good job finding a classic X object to draw/pen/ink/color/glitter. I probably would have only come up with "X marks the spot" , and have a dog named Spot standing on an X. Xerces is MUCH more interesting. And very very sad it is extinct.
Nice works, love the detail and coloration. Only two more to go, pretty amazing you've done 24 all the way through. Hmm, Y...Old Yeller? Nevermind....hope you have a nice night, what's left of it.

Extinction holds a certain kind of sad fascination, doesn't it? Spot marks the X, now that's a good one!
Yes, we're very nearly at the end of this challenge, and it's been fun sharing the ride. I'm looking forward to exploring whatever is coming next! Interacting with everyone during this challenge has opened the floodgates of ideas in my mind, I love it.
Thanks for your support, ddschteinn ☺

Col piece for this letter, you almost made it until the end! The shading and details on the body give it the good looks, but the coloring just does the trick for me. 🙆

Ah! What a compliment! Artistic renditions of pinned creatures seem a lot less destructive than specimens captured from nature. Thank you ☺
