Object: Gulf
Frittilary Bench Commission

Glass Tesserae with Black Grout on a Concrete Bench

Foot (37"x14")

The
client wanted a butterfly theme for this bench. I drew up
a variety of compositions using the wing shape of the Zebra
Longwing as well as the Gulf Frittilary. These butterflies
are native to Florida but very different in color and shape.
Both the color as well as the classic butterfly shape of
the Frittilary got the thumbs up.
