The Dance of The Butterflies Painting

I often watch the beautiful flight of butterflies , as they swirl and curl, dive and thrive in their ritual dance of life. Here I have captured a still moment in time as a pair of Purple Emperor's butterflies spiral over a meadow of grasses and deep purple cornflowers, gently blowing in a midsummer's days breeze. I created this piece using a number of technique including fabric painting, embroidery, quilting, and three dimensional textile techniques. All my work is framed, signed and mounted where possible. Due to the three dimensional nature of my work, most are displayed in box frames. This allow the piece to be viewed at different angles making the most of the detailing and gives a professional finish. Each frame is custom made by framing professionals in the UK, giving the best possible finish for the individual piece of artwork. Pieces are framed with a 2mm Crystal Clear ' XT ' Plexiglass, which is the modern, clean & safe acrylic alternative to traditional glass glazing. It is crystal clear, shatterproof and conforms to the latest BSI safety standards. Each piece of framed artwork comes with a hanging kit. This piece is framed in a white frame with a white mount.
