BUTTERFLY BANNER ART — The Tropicals

The Tropicals

We have crated up the butterflies and they will be picked up Monday by UPS International Air to ship to Potsdam Germany to hang in a Biosphere.

It seems that tropical butterflies have a lot of black coloring with bright contrasting colors. In order to add more interest, I used dark colors instead of black when I designed the patterns. At times we were cutting four layers of fabric; cutting with our hot knives. It created rich, deep dark colors that were shivery to look at when back lighted.

This post is intended to share photos of my team at work. I have to sing the praises of the craftsmanship of these people. It is admirable. It is intricate work and we personally handle each one.
