It lays its eggs on common rock rose and on nothing else, so the butterfly only survives where the plant does. Lydia paints the two together for that reason rather than isolating the insect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original was painted with natural inks made in her studio. The print is produced on museum-grade hemp paper, hand-signed on the front, with a stamped authenticity label on the back. Hemp grows quickly without heavy irrigation or pesticides, and the inks are water-based and non-toxic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA3 print, 297 x 420 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied framed in pale oak with a white mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchival hemp paper, free of acid, lignin and optical brighteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-signed on the front, stamped authenticity label on the rear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-toxic water-based inks, sealed with a protective coat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrinted and framed in the UK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLydia donates 10% of her sales to UK Butterfly Conservation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLydia Hill took a First-Class BA (Hons) in Textiles at Manchester School of Art and an MA in Textiles at the Royal College of Art in 2025.
