Artemis is the Hellenic goddess of forests and hills, childbirth, virginity, fertility and the hunt portrayed here as Monarch Butterflies, she is a goddess.
I was fortunate to find a swarm of million's plus Monarch Butterflies migrating south in the middle of British Columbia, Canada. I walked into this constant cloud 40 ft H, they glided in flurries like the wind contained within a mass. It seemed to take 5 mins. for them to pass.
Originally created as a learning aid to the blind, the original butterfly is delicate yet extreme high realism.
