Australian Admiral Butterfly on White Flower oil painting for sale

I added the Yellow Australian Admiral butterfly to make this a more interesting painting.

It’s painted in the Old Masters style of grisaille with colour washes to give good depth and transparency in the colours.

I believe that the traditional style of painting I use, brings out the Intense colours in the green leaves, and gives depth to the butterfly and white flowers beautifully.

This oil painting is in the Old Masters style of Grisaille.

Using a toned under-painting, followed by applying many layers of Transparent Colour, which finally gives a glow and depth to the finished painting, that modern techniques cannot recreate.
