Hourly Comic Day (HCD) Panel: Butterfly Trails

This is one of my Hourly Comic Day Panels (1 of 3 drawing panels plus 3 writing panels) for the month of June. One day a month (traditionally on the first day of the month, but really any day is fine), anyone and everyone is welcome to participate in Hourly Comic Day. Of course you can read about Hourly Comic Day (HCD) or any of the panels at any time - just go to the HCD Blog, which can be found on the left side bar of this (More 19 Planets) blog.

Butterfly Words: ATC

This is the 3rd of Four Mixed Media ATCs that were similar from a year ago (2007). It includes digital drawing and painting - which was then printed as a photo, cut to size and attached with grommets to an ATC that was painted with watercolor.

The image in the mirror will have a space between the wing halves, which is the thickness of the mirror. In the mirror it will look something like this:
