The painting is finished, and it's truly been a great adventure. Each time we produce a new painting, we learn a little bit more about art, so I really enjoyed this project, even though it was a commission, and not my own idea.
The butterfly is the final detail here; the colors I used on his wings were various blends of peaches, white, orange, yellow, and brown. The borders are black with pale bluish-white spots. Overall, I'm happy with how it turned out!
