A unicorn mid step, one front hoof lifted, looking round at a butterfly that has landed near its horn. The mane and tail curl in long waves, and that is where the color goes: pastel stripes, a rainbow or one soft shade, with the body left white or pale. It makes a gentle picture for a bedroom wall. This unicorn and butterfly drawing has a rounder cousin in the walking unicorn.
