The performer introduces a rectangular mat made of
the finest artificial grass with four leaves nested
upon its center. Four small colorful butterflies
are then revealed resting underneath the leaves.
They are then individually placed into a separate
corner of the rectangular grass mat. The performer
then covers each of the four butterflies one at
time with one of the four leaves. Then the magic
happens! One at a time, the three butterflies
vanish from underneath its covering leaf. The
leaves are then shown on both sides clearly and
plainly, there are no traces of the butterflies.
Each of the butterflies takes its invisible flight
invisibly through the air to join with the fourth
butterfly resting upon its corner of the
rectangular grass mat. The spectator is then
requested to put both of their hand’s palms up. The
leaves are then placed upon one palm of their hand
and the four butterflies on the palm of their other
hand. The performer then counts the leaves off the
palm of their hand one at a time, when the last
leaf is counted off, LO AND BEHOLD, A LARGER
BUTTERFLY OF A DIFFERENT COLOR HAS APPEARED ON THE
PALM OF THE SPECTATOR’S HAND. This illusion is done
without any sleights or skill. A close-up illusion
designed to delight, mystify and entertain all who
behold its performance.
