Floral Metal Panels


One thing I really enjoy welding is floral panels.  The pictured above is a panel I just completed with a hand painted butterfly accent and listed in my Etsy shop.  Upon closer examination you can see the painstaken attention to detail on the butterfly.

The frame and the flowers where airbrushed with Createx pearlescent paints but the butterfly is hand painted with metallic paints, some of the colors are custom blends with mica powders added to enhance the color or shine.  It is 20 inches in length and 6.75 inches wide.
