Feb custom 2 - butterfly garden

my much overdue 2nd custom for last month is still a work in progress.
Here is the butterfly, needs outline and antennas. Some flowers will be along the bottom of the shirt. Hand painted with artist quality acrylics and hand dyed with two tones of pink fibre reactive dyes.
The original mock design had the butterfly with a black background, but I felt it was too over powering and a bit punk, so went with gold. Gives it a fairy feel.
