50% OFF SPECIAL - LIMITED TIME - Original White Angel Butterfly in my Wildflower Garden - Impressionist Watercolor Painting

http://www.originalfinearthomedecorpaintings.com/product/Original-White-Angel-Butterfly-in-Wildflowers-Garden-Impressionist-Watercolor-Painting/Default.aspx

This original impressionist watercolor painting is a beautiful White Angel Butterfly resting on flowers in the Artist's garden. The Artist witnessed this beautiful butterfly gracefully flying from flower to flower as she worked in her garden this past summer. She finds the greatest inspiration and joy from some of the simplest thing in nature. She often has her camera at the ready to capture these precious and inspiring moments and then expresses the moment in her impressionist watercolor paintings.

Butterfly Legends

There is an old Papago Tribe Butterfly Legend - If anyone desires a wish to come true they must first capture a butterfly and whisper that wish to it. Since a butterfly can make no sound, the butterfly can not reveal the wish to anyone but the Great Spirit who hears and sees all. In gratitude for giving the beautiful butterfly its freedom, the Great Spirit always grants the wish. So, according to legend, by making a wish and giving the butterfly its freedom, the wish will be taken to the heavens and be granted.

Ancient Greeks have a Butterfly Legend - For the ancient Greeks, the transformation from pupa to adult was a metaphor of the soul's resurrection and immortality. In fact, the ancient Greek word for butterfly is a word which also means "soul" or "mind."

Native Americans - Butterfly Legend - Native Americans embroidered Butterflies onto their children's caps to bring sweet dreams.

Mexico - Butterfly Legend - According to people of certain areas of Mexico, Monarch butterflies carry the spirits of dead ancestors to visit. They arrive each year on (or near) the Day of the Dead (November 2), to visit and to take the souls of the newly-departed away with them.

Ireland - Butterfly Legend - In certain areas of Ireland, people believe a butterfly or moth is a soul on its way to paradise. If the wings are spotted, the soul must pay for its sins in purgatory but a pure soul will be all white.
