Butterfly Underside Revealed!

Underside of 30lb Butterfly

Do you see the lyre? The lyre is frequently used as a musical symbol, such as in chair backs and music stands. In the spirit of the musical theme of this butterfly, I decided to use the idea of the lyre as the back or support of the butterfly.

In this photograph, you will notice that the green music notations are visible in only one of the wings. The top wing's are not visible because I have not removed the frisket that I mentioned before. The lower wing obviously shows that the frisket is removed. I will now paint the green again to make it more vibrant.

...to be continued.
