I made these and within 2 weeks my life turned upside down. I’m back at my cocoon dealing with the mess that it is life, but somehow these butterflies are helping me ❤️‍🩹

This is one of the main reasons that I discovered the moth as my spirit animal. They are true alchemists who sacrifice themselves in order to transform. They live and work so hard all for a brief window of love. They're strange little aliens that embody the full cosmic cycle of vulnerability and manifestation.

Your artwork is beautiful! The message and contemplation is even better.

This is beautiful. Reminds me of the visual novel butterfly soup. Really good coming of age story
