Day 22: Poison and Butterfly
Part of a 60 day art challenge with friends on Gaiaonline.
For this day I chose to do two of the prompts presented to us and combined them. It was fun designing the skull in to the butterfly but I do need some practice on designing potion bottles.

Chemera and Mosaic Insects Part 2-Butterflies and Moths
A chimera (also spelled chimaera) (from the creature Chimera in Greek mythology) is a single organism composed of cells from different zygotes. This can result in male and female organs, two blood types, or subtle variations in form. Animal chimeras are produced by the merger of multiple fertilized eggs. If the different cells have emerged from the same zygote, the organism is called a mosaic. Chimeras are formed from at least four parent cells (two fertilised eggs or early embryos fused together). Each population of cells keeps its own character and the resulting organism is a mixture of tissues. Chimeras can often breed, but the fertility and type of offspring depends on which cell line gave rise to the ovaries or testes; varying degrees of intersex differences may result if one set of cells is genetically female and another genetically male. A gynandromorph is an organism that contains both male and female characteristics, authorities say. The term gynandromorph, from Greek “gyne” female and “andro” male, is mainly used in the field of entomology, though it has also been observed in arthropods and birds as well. Another way that chimærism can occur in animals is by organ transplantation, giving one individual tissues that developed from two genomes. For example, a bone marrow transplant can change someone’s blood type. Normally, chimærism is not visible on casual inspection; however, it has been detected in the course of proving parentage and may be more common than was believed before the advent of DNA testing.

I experimented with textures and I don’t know which one is better, the with or the without one
Maybe I became so accustomed to my flat drawings that giving them depth just gets me out of my comfort zone.
What do y’all think?
Butterfly
Last night, in my dream, a butterfly was kind enough to float around me. I was very grateful. I lovingly invited it to join me, extending my arm so it could land on my fingers - a peace offering. But the moment it landed and began to move, I was skeeved our by it’s insect legs crawling on my hand, and I violently shook it away. I wanted to love it, but this sensation only left me with fear and disgust. It trusted me in this brief moment and I broke this trust - in a way I broke my own trust too. Butterflies don’t live very long. I didn’t want to only appreciate it from a distance, but I wanted to know it. And I wanted it to know me. And in an instant, I protected myself from what senses perceived as danger. It’s but an insect, a butterfly no less. And now for the remainder of it’s short existence, it’ll wonder ‘what did I do wrong?’
