Neon Butterfly

Posted on 30. Dec, 2010 by GlitterGirl in Green, Orange, Pink, Purple, Yellow

This was a about 50 minutes — the toughest part was the shape which was still pretty new for me when I created it.

Tools Needed:

Photo by Shelah		Create an outline of the wings with a watery black; be sure to apply a light coat of paint for just a hint of the shape Begin by applying green close to the nose Next, apply the orange parallel to the green but leaving space between then for the yellow to mix Apply the yellow and pull from the green toward the outside wing toward the orange. Clean the brush and pull the orange color toward the green, with the two meeting in the middle with the yellow
On the outside of the orange, apply the pink, pulling it toward the ears In the corner of the wing around the eyes, blend the purple and the pink.

Apply the white dots on the black using a heavy and thick white Apply mascara and have fun!		Photo by David Yu
