Description
Painted Ladies have also been called the Cosmopolitan Butterfly, as they are the most widely distributed butterfly in the world, found on every continent except Australia (which has a similar species) and Antarctica. Those migrating from tropical Africa to the Arctic Circle travel double the distance that monarchs in their famed migration do. Painted Ladies can fly 100 miles a day and reach speeds up to 30 miles per hour. However, they only migrate toward the poles; unlike monarchs, they don’t return to winter in their original warm climates, but die when cold weather hits.
Dimensions: 11 x 14 inches
Art is unmatted and unframed.
This is original colored pencil art made with Polychromos Colour Pencils by Faber-Castell, an oil-based colored pencil that contains less wax than most colored pencils and therefore suffers from less wax bloom than most (in which the wax rises to the surface, dulling pigments over time). The pigments are acid-free, with the highest lightfast ratings in the industry. The majority of the colors are rated at the highest fade resistance of 100+ years, with a few rated at 25+ years.
