Emerald Peacock Swallowtail

Featured in Fantasy Fine Art Composites and in Butterflies, skippers, moths & other Winged Insects – March 23, 2009

The Emerald Swallowtail Butterfly – also known as the Emerald Peacock or Green-Banded Peacock – is found primarily in South East Asia. It has iridescent scales that give their wings a glittery appearance.

I created the background from scratch in Corel Painter, added various texture layers, and inserted this beautiful swallowtail from an image I took at the Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls.
