Update Spring 2017
I'm no longer creating the dragonflies and butterflies.
Thank you for all your purchases and support!
It's actually been a few months since I had a dragonfly post
and I have lots of new ones to share. All of these
are made using raised patterns.
For the fleur de lis dragonfly I used the same process
as the textured medallion dragonflies I've made in the past
to create the pattern and I really like how it turned out.
I used a door latch for the eyes...
and added a piece of vintage tin on the triangle shaped body.
This dragonfly was actually shipped to Norway!
This was a custom order for a textured peacock feather design.
I combined two different spindles and a finial for the body
I love working with the textured designs.
I made another textured design, this time using a
medallion type stencil
Metal handle on the body...
This one sold pretty quick and I had a request for one just like it...
This was the second one.
This design had another medallion type pattern...
I painted in a verdigris look with copper on the medallions.
For the sea shell dragonfly, I used the texture
compound to embed mixed seashells.
I had made a shell wing dragonfly once before using scallop shells.
I drilled holes in shells to use for the eyes too.
Thanks for checking out my textured dragonflies!

I've moved to Lucydesignsart.com to focus on my mosaic art. I'm no longer creating dragonflies or mermaids.
