Artist Notes
For days I had been quietly enjoying all the butterflies that were attracted to the rotten apples. That sense of peace changed as soon as I realized I had to paint this scene, capture the calmness I felt whenever I looked at it. From time to time a leaf drops down. As I stood right next to the watering can I imagined I could hear the fluttering wings of the butterflies…maybe I could?
