About the Cover

Beats & Burn Vol. 51 features an illustration of a Paper Kite Butterfly, (Idea leuconoe), also known as a Rice Paper Butterfly. This species is a large black and white patterned relative of the Monarch, and lives just below the forest canopy in the coastal regions of southeast Asia. The delicate and intricate nature of this particular species sparked a source of inspiration for me, and this illustration shows some love to the extraordinary expression of nature's wild patterns.
