Couldn't quite decide what I was going to do with the 3rd butterfly, so I fell back on another UFO (unfinished object). As I said, I had a lot of Retro Cafe Art blanks assembled with a base coat of paint but no direction in which to go. I started with the elevated ATC shrine from Retro Cafe Art, adhering it to a more substantial base and adding lots of stuff. I had painted it it a basic white but knew it couldn't stay there. Some blue paint, a little black wash, some gold accents on top of crackle paste gave it just the look I wanted.
I have long admired many of the art projects that are eclectic and really "on the edge" but they're just not me. I think this is a great compromise piece...me and where I'd like to go.
