"Zebra Swallowtail" 2001
Acrylic on canvas 20 " x 16 "

Butterflies are a simple symbol of rebirth and reawakening. Here is the zebra swallowtail rising above the morning sky, complete with Venus, the morning star. Underneath is a banner with the letter "Z" repeated 4 times, approximating the well-known symbol for the sound someone makes when sleeping.
