butterfly and scribble...

sketch 17th june: what's the use?
pencil and gouache on book page with found butterfly transfer, dedication and scribble...

Another piece of invaluable treasure. I nipped in to a charity shop at the end of my road that I rarely ever visit and I was so glad that I did. They had a few old books on the shelf and my heart and mind sang a unified 'Yeeesssss!' when I opened one and found the above. I whizzed on home and added the hands pronto.

What made your day today?

That is absolutely beautiful. Is there any chance that you will be putting it (or a print) in you shop?

Thanks for your comments guys!

Emmy - this piece will be available either this coming sunday or monday evening. If you - or anyone else for that matter - is interested in making a purchase before this hits the shop you can drop me a line on info@oliviajeffries.com - prints may come further down the line...

This is so beautiful. The sweet Robin that came and ate the bugs that I uncovered when I was on the allotment this morning is what made my day :)
