butterfly in the world, the Queen Alexandras Birdwing.
Since @Spoonflower mentioned abstracted butterfly wings in the discription of this challenge I could not refuse. I took my inspiration from the Worlds largest butterfly, the Queen Alexandras Birdwing Butterfly. When you look at a wing really closely you can see a texture, I tried to capture the feeling of that texture along with the beautiful colors of the male butterfly's wings. The female is a beautiful blend of warm browns and is the larger of the two. Her wingspan is 9.8 to 11 inches wide! The male butterfly's wingspan is only 9 inches wide, I was really drawn to his turquoise coloring so I decided to use him as my inspiration.
