Hi, here is my instructions for drawing a Monarch Butterfly. I hope this helps you draw your own Monarch. First I paint the orange on the Butterfly , on the bottom wing i add Cadmium Yellow close to the body. Use a small brush to paint the black. I go around the white dots, I am more a purist and try not to use white. After I paint the complete butterfly I then add iridescent watercolor to only the orange. It takes awhile but really is worth the effort.

| Here is my latest hummingbird. I grew the sunflower, yeah, I love them. And they were beautiful all gone now though. |

| And I am still raising Monarchs and BlackSwallowtails. Hard finding food for them but now 10 chryslises of Monarch and 3 cats of the Swallow tails. Sadie,our white Labrador is asleep at my feet. We had a long walk in the woods after supper. Love to you all, Diana |
