Artist Comments
A folk art style representation of the various stages of monarch butterfly development, from caterpillar to cocoon and finally butterfly. The painting also features the host plant called milkweed with its abundant pink flowers. "This artwork is very detailed and the viewer can enjoy seeing the different stages of development," says artist Kira Yustak. "Perfect for any butterfly lover. Butterflies are symbolic of transformation!"
About the Artist
Kira Yustak paints fantastical scenes that come from her childhood memories, dreams, and the natural world. Each piece feels like part of a larger narrative of an alternative reality, rendered in a style she describes as comic realism. She feels art must trigger something inside the viewer’s soul.Kira currently lives in New Jersey and finds inspiration in the work of Lowbrow, Folk, and Surrealist artists.
