I don't do a lot of collages usually. But I saw this face in a mag and I had to do this.
I used metallic paints for the background and just layered them over each other. I used colors that would compliment the butterflies. I was going to add some flowers and other things, but in the end I decided to K.I.S.S and just add some peacock feathers.
I just love the eyes, kind of magickal and almost little creepy and beautiful.
So there it is, my most favorite collage ever.
Peace

WOW, this is a beautiful piece. I hope you keep the original for yourself.... but do believe you'd make some $ if you made some cards with this as the focal point on the front.

This is one of the most beautiful things I have EVER seen!
The feathers work better than the flowers might have.
