Butterflies of the World celebrates one of nature’s most visually captivating subjects through Robert M. Swedroe’s distinctive collage vocabulary.
Butterflies in dramatically different colors, scales and patterns move across a luminous composition layered with translucent shapes and fragments of color.
Brilliant blues and greens are juxtaposed against saturated reds, oranges, yellows and purples, creating an energetic visual rhythm across the artwork.
The abundance of butterflies gives the composition a sense of continuous movement—as though the viewer has encountered an extraordinary migration frozen for a moment in time.
Reproduced across the Weekender Tote, the artwork becomes an especially vibrant piece of functional art.
