Butterfly Vase

 Butterfly Vase

(Acrylic and collage on watercolour paper, 12x12 in)

Following another online prompt from Este MacLeod, I made the butterfly and then had to find something to do with it! It became quite a struggle.

I made the butterfly by simply folding paper over some paint and ink. After I'd cut it out, I stuck it to a sheet of watercolour paper and made everything else up. The red-brown vase is another piece of watercolour paper I used to clean my palette. The green leaves I found online.
