Small Pictures for the Gallery Shop.

 

 I decided to print out on silk 4 different types of leaves
as backgrounds for some digitzed butterflies.

The reason I used silk was so that it was easier to wrap the corners neatly, but even so I had to hand stitch the mitres. These canvases are only 15 cm square, so are really a bit fiddly to cover.

 
I painted the canvases first as I was worried that the stark white would show through the fine silk.
 I want to make 4 in all, so here are the 4 silk print-outs.
