Rendered in earthy neutrals and glowing crimson, Cobius lunae emerges as a quietly powerful subject in this vintage-inspired watercolor and India ink painting. With a heart-shaped wing span and blood-red accents, the butterfly floats in a deep black void, echoing the mystery and rarity of preserved specimens. This piece explores contrast—not just in palette, but in the soft fragility of nature against bold, archival framing.
A timeless blend of science illustration and expressive art.
