Ember Wings, Symmetrical Orange Butterfly

A symmetrical orange butterfly shape with a small head and slim pointed body. The wings are filled with swirling, flame-like patterns in orange, yellow and red, with thick black lines tracing the upper wings and a black crescent with three red dots on each lower wing. It is outlined in dark brown and sits on a plain white background.

This is a butterfly that looks lit from behind. The wings are filled with swirling, flame-like orange, yellow and red, and thick black vein lines and black crescents (each holding three red dots) sit on top. A dark brown outline and strict mirror symmetry hold the movement in. Most butterfly art is soft, pastel or photographic. This one is bold, graphic and warm, and it reads from across a room as a single strong shape on white.
