You Were Meant to Fly - Butterfly

You Were Meant to Fly - Butterfly FinDinG YouR WiNgS - šŸ¦‹ located in the alley behind 1244 7th Avenue in Uptown Marion.

THANK you to my one of my dearest art friends, Dori Patrick, for painting my wings. It's exciting to think about all the happiness and inspiration these butterfly wings will bring to "caterpillars" when they are discovered…. When you find the wings - photograph yourself with them and SHARE your photo on my page, friends… and… fly!

Walking to my studio this morning and seeing the butterfly wings from a block away made me skip!

šŸ’ƒšŸ¦‹šŸ•ŗ And when I saw that the morning rain was beading off the newly sealed surface of the wings! I did a little happy dance in the alley!
