Swallowtail - mounted rubber stamp

Description

................. SWALLOWTAIL BUTTERFLY

Found here in Fairbanks, Alaska. Ever try and catch one of these in a net? Absolutely amazing how fast and erratic they are traveling when you actually give chase. I don't usually stand a chance.

Drawn from my insect collection... I think this one got trapped in my greenhouse.

Wood block size is 2.5 by 3.5 inches.

................. A NOTE ON MY STAMPS

All stamps are original art. I designed each from my nature illustrations or my photography.

The red rubber stamp is adhered to a maple block with a red rubber cushion between. I've finished and sanded the block. I've printed the stamp's image on the top of the block with printers ink. My hope is to make these mounted stamps something of art objects in themselves. Nice to look at and hold.

All stamps are available either mounted or unmounted. Please contact me if you don't see what you'd like.

I have an Angel policy on my stamps. In brief, this means you can use the stamps on items for sale as long as they are hand-stamped.
