Day 71


I get a lot of these cabbage moths in my garden during the
summer months, and although I know they wreak havok
on my cabbage heads and other veggies, I  still enjoy their delicate
 and ethereal presence as they flit from plant to plant.  This one decided
that the meadow sage was going to be his lunch du jour.

If you would like to see more of my work,
please visit my website or my blog. If you are
interested in purchasing any of my paintings you see
here on this blog, please contact me.

I never knew these white butterflies were actually cabbage moths. They are pretty and I like them anyhow. This is a lovely painting of one and I love purple and dark background.
