DESCRIPTION

The aqua color of this butterfly and the capiz shell complement each other in such a way that it almost looks like one is looking at cobalt glass. This color is accentuated by the copper tone bordering the aqua centers. This is truly an impressive piece combining natural materials and colors and creating something breathtaking. The upper wing adorned in capiz is contrasted by the handcrafted metal lower wing. Both components meld together for a piece that showcases the artists talents.

Construction:
The basic frame of the insect is created using tin, which is powder coated with a black finish. The frame is reinforced using tin wire along the inner edge. Capiz is an oyster shell and the primary purpose of the oyster is as a source of food. However, the by-product, the shell, can be used for decoration. Due to it being a natural material, the natural colors of the capiz come through as tans and browns underneath the paint. The shell is then painted the bold colors you see. The entire front facing piece is carefully hand-painted keeping in mind the reflective qualities in the color of insects.
