Unicorn and Butterfly Pendant

Description

Media: Pyrography on birch wood, colored pencil.

I recently received a new and higher quality wood-burning pen and it handles so much better than the super cheap one I had before. I feel much more confident in trying more detailed pendants.

It didn't start out as a "The Last Unicorn" homage, but it became one when I decided to add the butterfly. One of my all time favorite books, so it sneaks into my artwork from time to time.

I wanted to keep the coloring minimal on this. I didn't have room to include the lilac wood she lived in, so I decided to make lilac the color for the butterfly and shading. :)

I regularly add my wood-burned pendants to my Etsy store: www.etsy.com/shop/benwhoski

I also take commissions!

This piece is art pure. The soft colors of white and purple, work wonderfully with the shade of the wood. Then the wood burn drawing itself, it is so consistent. Not too cheesy with the eye, but still very detailed. It's just nice to look at.

Also, I think it's good that the butterfly, is not like the one from the film.
(He the film one) is not very beautiful. But your realistic butterfly fits here just gorgeous.
The one person who has this necklace, should guard it like a treasure.
Something like that uniquely and beautiful... Is really just very rarely seen,
and much less likely to buy.
I lost my heart to this piece of art!
