Day Lily, Butterfly, and Dragonfly

A daylily has blossomed in the center of this painting, extending diagonally from the lower-left portion, and a butterfly and dragonfly are flying around it. The butterfly’s wings are depicted using ink smudging, and patterns on the wings are portrayed delicately with fine ink lines. This painting is created in the style of Sim Sajeong, but slight divergences are observed as well.
