About the Artwork:
“My latest piece, “Monarch,” is my first foray into a new medium with which I have fallen deeply in love. Mylar is a translucent plastic sheet that creates an extra layer of ghostly depth when laid over another drawing. I added painted butterflies and extra graphite details on the Mylar, and laid that on top a of an already finished sketch, so that when you lift the Mylar sheet it reveals quite a different drawing underneath. I love this aspect of this medium… it’s almost like having a secret hidden underneath, partially concealed – not to mention having two drawings combined into one piece.” – Allison Reimold
