Orange Butterfly

Oil on Wood

6 x 8

SOLD

I thought this would be an easy piece, but it was surprisingly difficult. I had to make decisions about how symmetrical I wanted the butterfly to be, and the color choice for the background was difficult. Originally it was to have a pale beige background, but I changed it to this blue-green. I thought I made the butterfly small enough, but it still ended up stretching out almost to the edges, which will make framing difficult. It will need a frame that doesn't overlap. If I had it to do over, I would have made the butterfly much smaller.

Sardines

Oil on wood
6 x 8

I had a lot of fun painting these sardines. I love the metallic look of fish and tried to capture that, as well as the shine of the can. I was surprised when I opened the can, though: I have never eaten sardines, and thought that the heads would be on them!
