Blue Morpho

Imaginary Gardens with Real Toads

The Blue Morpho butterfly (Morpho menelaus) doesn't actually contain blue pigment. Instead, microscopic scales on its wings reflect light to create that impossible electric shimmer—a trick of physics that has captivated scientists and artists for centuries.

This is where I live: in that space between the real and the imagined. More at home in Alice's Wonderland than in Linnaeus's Taxonomy.

Vector Art Meets Pattern Design

Each Blue Morpho piece begins as precise vector drawing—capturing the wing structure, the iridescent blues, the delicate architecture of nature's engineering. Then I combine these vectors with intricate patterns, layering digital techniques to create something that exists between the real and the fantastical. The bug in question may not exist in the real world, but it exists in the mind of the artist and the viewer, stimulating that most potent human attribute: imagination.

From Museum Exhibition to Wearable Art

Featured in 'Shoosty Bugs: An Art Infestation' at the Museum of Arts & Sciences in Daytona—14,000 square feet of fanciful insects that represent a long history of human fascination with bugs. These Blue Morpho designs are scalable, inventive, and perfect for clothing, accessories, and more.
