WIKIPEDIA: The Malachite (Siproeta stelenes) is a neotropical brush-footed butterfly (family Nymphalidae). The malachite has large wings that are black and brilliant green or yellow-green on the upperside and light brown and olive green on the underside. It is named for the mineral malachite, which is similar in color to the bright green on the butterfly's wings.

Bill,although I cannot anywhere near keep up with each and every work, it is really quite wonderful not to have viewed your gallery for a while and then be blown away by so many new and magical creations. I'm spellbound by your consistent creativity, beautiful and original color sense and intimate detail. Everything here leaves my mind in a state of wonder.This is just..well, "it's a colorful butterfly perching on a lime green leaf" and it is also so much more.It is blissful and transfixing and seems to be created from the light itself.
