The wings of this whimsical butterfly seem to be a whir of motion — about to take flight from this small painting. Set against a black-and-white background, the butterfly’s bright colors burst off the checkerboard in a style reminiscent of Mackenzie-Childs. Collectors of her work — or fans of Alice in Wonderland-style collectibles — will find this piece fits in perfectly. It can be hung on the wall or it works equally as well sitting on a shelf, especially in a setting within today’s trendy curated bookshelf style. Its size is also perfect for sitting on a side table, alongside some vases or flower pots, on a tray or dresser or the kitchen counter. Size: 5.5 inches wide x 5.5 inches tall x 0.5 inches thick. The painting has been created directly on hardwood (rather than canvas) with acrylic paint to give it greater strength. It has been covered with multiple coats of poly to give it a soft glossy look and protect the paint.
