Alana, blue flowers are a favorite subject of mine, if not an achievement - but we can always dream. Anyhoo, your title reminded me of an artist whose flowers often morphed into butterflies (sometimes blue) and back again in his still life paintings: Odilon Redon (1840-1916).

'Course, ya have to squint your eyes at the petals in a certain way to see them flit about the canvass like butterflies
(ps & ot - horse lovers might like to check out Redon's Apollo's Chariot, centaurs, Pegasus and maybe Aurora if I remember correctly)
(pps - yup about the caryopteris - deer leave this one alone for us and we always look forward to its July & August blues, in spite of limited sun)
