Relief Project

For this project I used an butterfly temple in 3 different sizes to keep so similarity throughout the piece. I traced those onto the black paper, then used an xacto knife to cut out the outer edge. Once i finished that which to a while because i had to be so precise, i glued white paper behind the cut out area of the butterfly. The butterfly temples were successful and also the color scheme was very successful. Gluing the white paper behind the cut out area wasn't as successful as the rest of the project because some of the butterfly wings got stuck to the dry glue. Which caused so of the white outlines to be not as clean as i would like them to be. What inspired me was the mini-relief project that i did with this same technique. I really liked how it looked sort-of 3D, so i wanted to create a similar piece with the same type of effect.
