This is a pen and ink drawing with translucent watercolour of a Edwards Glassy-Wing moth. They are a delicate creature and must be drawn quickly when a specimen is found, as even with the lightest of touch the pattern on the wings can easily be damaged. To create this image I had included California Aster, another delicate beauty, blooming in late summer and will quickly fade under the hot sun. The structure of this drawing was meant to emphasize the triangular shape of the moth by playing off the bud growth of the flower. I hope many blessings have found you this weekend ;-)
