Butterfly Tapestry

Here are in progress images of my butterfly tapestry. There are two hair ornaments that come off of this one. The center of the wire flowers are mini shoyu bottle caps. The paper butterflies are recycled postcard and print materials from the de Young Museum. The butterfly pattern is inspired by a Japanese textile in their online image collection.


























































































Cardboard sketch and the beginning of wire work.




















Mesh being added. This mesh is remnant mesh from Walker Bag of San Francisco.
