Watercolor Butterflies

I actually did 6 paintings for this class (2 for each photo reference) and it was surprising how different they all came out. It is not easy to draw the shape and also the fine black line at the end. Thank you for the tips with the eraser to make the pencil lines faint and I never thought about drawing really fast so the line doesn't bleed too much but I think the tricky part is also how much water you have on your paper. 

Here are the three butterflies I liked a little bit better. And as you can see I also used some masking fluids in number two and three:

I like how the body looks kind of fluffy in the second one.

Thank you for the class!
