butterfly

hello
there are a lot of people doing the 'drawing challenge' this week.
nadine's choice of butterfly as a theme is a popular one.
for me, butterflies symbolize fragile beauty and change.
and perhaps too the crazy flight a teenage girl takes, from flower to flower, as she metamorphs into the woman she will become... i am sharing my space with a few of them at the moment!
   
i screenprinted Hormonal Girl here in this lovely little studio.
lucky to be invited to spend sunday here.

  1. teenage girls and butterflies, yes i can see the resemblance, original work, the more i look at it the more i like it, especially against the brown background.
    that studio looks so summery x

  2. really, a beautiful studio! I wished, I could work there!
    your screenprint is great. I love the mixture of the black printed girl and the fine printed butterflies in the wings very much.

  3. To tell the truth,
    I often get a little bit angry about you and I am on edge, because it seems to me that I have to come to you, but you don't come to me and the others,
    dear Jasmin,
    and I don't want to come and comment at your jazzy two shoes - and then...
    I look at your Hormonal Girl Butterfly... and like it very much.... no, love it!

  5. strong black lines
    against soft fluttering lines
    it suits the change from a teenager
    to the woman or man they will become
    so well!!
    hard against soft
    the anger and misunderstanding
    against the child inside
    it could be about my son of 14

    love x

    P.S.
    will you join the next challenge?
    I am the host

  8. Sorry I missed out on your butterfly challenge - I do not know why that was. I like your interpretation with the crazy flight a teenage girl takes. A studio in the garden is a wonderful place to do your work - my son and his wife do the same.
