Tiger Swallowtail Watercolor with Rice Paper

HI, I did finish my tigerswallow tail watercolor.The background, I decided to go frothy. I glued rice paper with gold metallic strips in it to the edges and stained them with thalo blue and cadmium yellow light. I'll put an oval mat on it.Here's the rice paper with it.

Now I'll work on the other butterfly. That was a spicebush swallowtail.I'll wash my old glue brush first..fill up the coffee cup and here I go..happy painting today!

Talk to you soon.Diana
