Butterfly Lady Gold

Featured Work: “Butterfly Lady – Gold”

Model: Bobbi | A Lasky/Israel Original

“Butterfly Lady – Gold” is a dazzling, high-energy fusion of motion, magic, and metamorphosis. Created by the legendary duo Bob Lasky and Michael Israel, this one-of-a-kind analog piece features Bobbi Israel—Michael’s then-wife—wrapped in golden bodypaint and swirling in iridescent light.

Her graceful pose is both statuesque and free, captured mid-transcendence as she stretches upward, enveloped in shimmering purple ribbons and luminous sparkles. Behind her, vibrant airbrushed butterfly wings seem to radiate off the canvas, suggesting rebirth, transformation, and radiant feminine power.

This piece exemplifies the Lasky/Israel process: Bob’s original Hasselblad photography of a live, body-painted model was printed in large format, then transformed by Michael’s airbrush mastery. Layer by layer, he built a surreal fantasy world directly onto the print. Finally, Bob rephotographed the finished work, blending chemistry and creativity to lock in the warmth, glow, and otherworldly depth.

“Butterfly Lady – Gold” glows in warm hues—fiery orange, glowing gold, and deep violet—inviting viewers into a realm where strength is beautiful and beauty is powerful. It is sensual, celebratory, and unapologetically radiant.

This rare original from the Lasky/Israel Collection is available exclusively through Fourth Realm Fine Art—a true analog treasure from a pre-digital era of handcrafted brilliance.

About Free Ground Shipping

We offer free ground shipping because each piece is made to order and may take up to four weeks to be ready for shipment—so paying for expedited shipping doesn’t really make sense in most cases. Signed or hand-painted pieces can take even longer, depending on Michael’s show schedule.

All full-price artwork purchases include free ground shipping. Shipping fees may apply to certain discounted or store-credit purchases, or to orders outside the continental U.S. If you prefer expedited delivery or need international shipping, please contact us directly for costs and options.

Packaging: Smaller prints (5x7 and 12x18) are shipped flat with sturdy backing boards in protective envelopes—ready to frame with or without a mat. Larger 16x24 and 24x36 prints are carefully rolled in heavy-duty tubes to keep them safe and pristine during shipping.
Framing

Because framing is a personal choice based on style and budget, all prints are sold ready to frame and do not include a frame. The frames shown in images are for illustration only to help you visualize how the artwork might look once framed. At this time, we do not offer framing services for prints.
