Ten Finger Art - Growing A Monarch

Dandelion Monarch
 
The Beginning
 
The outline is done in black modeling clay.
 
Three shades of orange modeling clay adds the wing colour.
 Leaving the white board show through.
 
Giving it a "foot-hold" on a dandelion.
 
Leaves and grass appearing.
 
Continuing with grass and leaves.
 
After a 24 hour break, starting to finish the grass.
 
Closing in.
 
Complete.  Now it sits for about a week before I put a gel on to seal it.
16 x 20 inches on canvass board.
