Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way.

This butterfly was seen at the Butterfly Conservatory I visited in Georgia at the end of June. A tropical butterfly of some sort. I didn't have much time so I wasn't able to ID all of the ones I shot.
And on another note -
I am not a very fashion conscious person - my favorite outfit is a pair of jeans, a t-shirt and some tennis shoes - however - I definitely think the pattern and colors on this butterfly's wings would make a GREAT fabric for a dress. In fact - I bet my sister would look wonderful in it.
What a gorgeous shot!! I do think that it would make a great pattern for a dress too! I've never seen a butterfly like it! Thanks for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful butterfly. It is fun to see patterns we have never seen before.

Hi Kerri...great colors and pattern in deed and a lovely photo!!
ReplyDeleteA dress yes..but I am with you jeans, t-shirt,but I am more a bare foot in summer gal except when I have to go anywhere ( they won't let me in the stores lol )
I think you're right about the butterfly's coloring making a pretty dress. I think it would make a pretty crochet scarf too!....Hmmm....Maybe I better work on that! LOL
