Damselflies have long been a favorite insect of mine. I remember first seeing them when I was very young. I thought they looked like little jewels. I’d see different varieties when we’d go to a nearby lake. All the damselflies, with their brilliant blues, vivid greens, fiery oranges, yellow and reds are stunning, but the black-striped ones always seemed special. I need to get some good photos of males to paint from. Here is a painting of a female. They are a little less colorful, but still beautiful.
Original painting is available here.
