Princess Pear

Psyche by painter Lyndon Andrews

Here is the artist’s commentary from www.lyndonandrews.blogspot.com

The inspiration for this painting, Psyche, comes from Greek myth. Psyche was a beautiful princess who incurred the wrath of Aphrodite.

Psyche means soul in Greek and also butterfly.  The initial inspiration for the butterflies in my paintings comes not from that, but funnily enough from a bookI read on Wedgwood.  The potters would place butterflies over flaws made in the firing of an item. These would disguise the imperfections.  In time the meaning of the butterflies has changed for me, in my paintings.
