I enjoy observational illustration as well! Especially interesting to see how different people observe, interpret and transfer similar things (or things from which we know what they look like, like fruit) in different ways. Unless it's a 100% photorealistic copy of what's visible withouth any selection or adaption of course.
The butterfly is lovely, I like how you achieved that powdery, metallic texture. Would love to have a closer look.
Long drying time isn't much different in any kind of (commercial) illustration though, isn't it? But you're, (drying) speed and ease of handling has probably always influenced the choice of medium, even before the digital age. Never really thought about that topic before.
