Sping's paradise flower

For many people tulip is a typical spring flower, but it has a much more interesting story hidden behind her colourful petals. So, being the main topic for Persian poets from the thirteenth century , this gentle and gorgeous flower is the symbol of the paradise on the earth.

Clear gesso - oil effect

Today I've experimented with a new technique for pastel, and I was  pleasantly surprised of it. This technique I've read on the one of my favorite blog. The most amazing thing is that using the primer clear gesso, offers the possibility to create the effect of oil painting with soft pastel. Here is today's sketch of narcissus flower with pastel, watercolor underpaintig and clear gesso,15x21cm.

Why did I choose butterfly? The way I see it is the effect caused by this strange and pleasant love. I mean the butterflies in the stomach. I think everybody felt it at least once in his life. 
So, why does your darling person can't be your butterfly?!
 Moreover, the feeling of love brings you wings to fly far away. Just enjoy it!
