Animal Love Day
Animal Love Day – Butterfly
On 15, May 2013 | 4 Comments | In Animal Love Day, animals, designer, illustration, inspiration, my work | By Tina
Hi everyone. Welcome to the 5th Animal Love Day. (Wow the weeks are flying!) As you probably know by now it’s a weekly feature where I showcase some lovely animal pattern and illustration.
I pick a different animal each week and firstly do my own illustration and then I showcase some fantastic animal patterns and illustrations by other designers
The animals covered will include birds, fish, insects, extinct creatures and mythical creatures.
Today’s guest star is such a pretty little thing. An inspiration for centuries, there are 175,000 species (including moths) and the only continent they can’t be found is in Antarctica.
So I would like to welcome the beautiful butterfly!
MY DESIGN
I created this design for Dawn Clarkson’s Butterfly Showcase for World Lupus Day on May 10th. You can see a sneak preview of the other designs further down this post.
DESIGNER SHOWCASE

On May 10th it was World Lupus Day and Dawn Clarkson of Nice & Fancy Surface Pattern Design organised a Butterfly Showcase by some talented contemporary designers (and their children!).
Here’s a sneak peek at those designs but you can see them in their entirety at these links – Showcase 1, Showcase 2 and Showcase 3 and find out who the talented designers are!
That’s it for another Animal Love Day. I hope you enjoyed it.
