Here is a painting I finished awhile ago. I call it "Forest Queen". It's a mixed media piece with acrylics. The main image was cut from a magazine, and pasted to a blue background, and painted over. Then I painted in the tree branches. The butterflies were drawn, and painted on paper as accurately as possible from real specimens then pasted on. Finally I painted the leaves at the bottom, and varnished the completed painting.
