Bead Embroidery Pattern on Art Canvas "Night magic"

“Night magic” — butterflies rise from an open water lily, and a sheaf of bright rays spreads from it across the whole night sky.

What the picture shows

At the bottom centre a pink-and-white water lily glows on dark water, with a few smaller buds and broad leaves beside it. From the flower long rays fan outward: deep green at first, then turquoise, blue and mauve, reaching the very top of the canvas. They are worked in rows of tiny beads, so they look like scattered sparks. Butterflies rise through this glow — yellow, orange, crimson and one in white and blue; another rests at the lower right. The background is deep violet night, and everything repeats below in a rippling reflection on the water. Coverage is partial: beads fill the rays, the flowers, the butterflies and the glints on the water, while the depth of the night stays as print on the canvas.
