As last year the Butterflies for Lupus Showcase 2020 will be hosted on Instagram. At the moment I am doing lots of collages and mixed media designs so my butterflies will be in created using this style. I will post a design on the Butterflies for Lupus Instagram account everyday throughout May to mark Lupus awareness month and World Lupus Day, which is on the 10th May. At the end of the challenge I hope to have at least 31 beautiful butterfly designs to create a Butterfly Showcase which I will share here on the Butterflies for Lupus website and on Pinterest.

The Butterflies for Lupus Showcase 2019 will be hosted as an Instagram Challenge: Chasing Butterflies.

One of my hashtags is ‘sometimes I draw butterflies’ and it’s true, sometimes I do! Mainly I collect butterfly art to raise awareness for people with Lupus and once a year I ask people to send me their butterfly art to share on this website.

Well today is the 10th of May and World Lupus Day, time for me to show you all the beautiful butterfly designs that I have collected for this year’s showcase. It is always hard to organise everything and sometimes I wonder why I do it, however, I insist on trying to raise awareness for this strange and unpredictable disease.

With a small donation made to Lupus UK, the Butterflies for Lupus Showcase 2017 has been concluded for another year. I have added a couple of late submissions to the showcase and completed the Pinterest boards.
