Description
This butterfly was painted with water soluble wax crayons and wet colored tissue paper to create this stained glass effect. I think this colorful image would make a great greeting card or a beautiful print for a child's room.
I named it "In Your Dreams" because I felt that the boldness of the butterfly colors is not something you would see in real life... but rather in a dream. However, the vibrant colors speak of the transformation that God wants to bring about in each one of us as we choose to spread our wings and fly like He designed for us to fly.♥
Note: Fineartamerica watermark will NOT appear on the final purchased product.
