Artist: Diane Clancy; Title: Matisse in Butterflies II; Medium: Photography, Digital Collage

Elegance, Charm and Gentleness - Matisse in Butterflies II is the centerfold in an outdoor festival of green, indigo, blue, aqua and lavender butterflies with more purple, lime, cyan, yellow, magenta and pink butterflies flying around - they dance and create music that whispers through the field of pink of flowers. Papillon is the French word for butterfly so this portrait with Matisse in Butterflies II is an incredible match. A rainbow of butterflies circles Matisse, who is a tiny dog with long mostly white silky fur. Her face and ears are all black, including her ears, which stand up straight and alert. Matisse has deep brown eyes that gaze out of her cute little face. She wears a bright sky blue tag hanging off her collar. You can see her white shaggy tail waving. You may experience peace, serenity and healing as you look at my work.

Matisse in Butterflies II is part of my Fanciful Animal Images series. This elegant White & Black Papillon is a beloved family dog – he has three boys (and a mom and dad) who love him so much that they want him in a portrait. Matisse the Butterfly Dog romps through the butterflies with energy and enthusiasm before going home to cuddle with gentleness. Matisse in Butterflies II is an excellent gift for yourself or any pet lover. Matisse’s portrait may enhance any home or office - whether next to your computer on a mouse pad, mug, plate, shirt, tote bag, iPhone or iPad cover, puzzle or on your living room wall.
