“Antisocial Butterfly” is an original colored pencil drawing depicting a Betta fish, rendered with a focus on form, movement, and detail. The composition isolates the subject, allowing for close examination of its structure while capturing a greater sense of motion in the flowing fins.
This piece is the second work in the “Art of War” series, a collection exploring contrast, tension, and identity through the form of the betta fish. While the species is traditionally associated with aggression, this work presents a quieter interpretation, emphasizing elegance and restraint.
Executed entirely by hand, the drawing reflects careful attention to color, texture, and light, resulting in a precise and controlled rendering.
As an original, this piece is one of a kind and is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
