Recurring Motif - Blue Buttons

Recurring Motif - Blue Buttons

This is one of my most beloved inspirational creatures called Blue-Buttons. I wanted to share this painting and etching collection. It shows how I have painted the same creature in several different pieces in different ways. These jellyfish-like creatures are colonies of individual polyps that function as one organism. They are very tiny in scale, hence the name Blue-Buttons. They are very tiny in scale and float across the surface of the ocean.
