the Giant Swallowtails are magnificent creatures and you have done them proud with your gorgeous rendering of them.

Colors are true and love the delicate setting.

thanks for bringing this one back!

Congratulations on your well deserved contest win. The butterfly is meticulously detailed and shown in beautiful colors. A very nice composition and a fine painting.

The impressive and well done digital art image is what we we all need these days. The colors, composition and overall presentation is superb. These butterflies like clean environment and that what is needed.

I don't think I have ever seen a butterfly painted so well. Most butterflies seem to be flat with no personality. This one definitely shows a purpose on the flowers which are also portrayed perfectly.

Cool,Cleo!
Swallowtails seem to be a large species ( at least for non Tropical,North American types of Butterflies anyway! ) and they're certainly very attractive!
Your digital rendition of this handsome specimen looks Great,my friend!

Firstly congratulations and secondly Id like to say what a beautiful presentation you have submitted.The softness of your chosen medium has been applied beautifully throughout and the palette of colours a good choice
