The butterfly, however, is one I see quite often while walking, and this one was sitting very peacefully on an arum lily in my garden after a walk, to be photographed and later painted. My sister-in-law in Cape Town, known in her area as The Butterfly Lady, tells me it is a Citrus Swallowtail, also known as a Christmas butterfly.
A Sketch in Time is now five years old, and once again I ask myself, "Quo Vadis?", but it will probably carry on bumbling along in its rather aimless manner, as I do. Thank you to all who visit here for bumbling along after us!
Dear Cathy,
ReplyDeleteI love your painted butterfly so much. Congrats on your 5yrs blogging!! Thank YOU for sharing joy on the net through blogging.
Best wishes, Sadami
Wonderful sketching Cathy! :0)
ReplyDeleteBeautifully painted butterfly. I think I like your description of your 5 years as bumbling along, it sounds like me, but your painting is so much better than mine.
ReplyDeleteSadami - thank you for your enthusiasm, you certainly inspire me to keep on going!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandra!(I'll be voting for your teddy :)
Hi Penny - I try to get more purposeful sometimes, but usually forget where I was heading - starting to think this is just the way I am!
Even though I don't comment often, your blog has been a delight and an inspiration to follow over the years - I'm so glad you will keep bumbling along and sharing your beautiful art, Cathy! ;)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 5 years! I've enjoyed following along with you and hope you continue.
ReplyDeleteFelicity, thanks so much and likewise - more than enough chat elsewhere!
ReplyDeleteRhonda, another friend that's been along most of the whole long ramble I think - thank you for all your support!
