My Painted Butterfly

I tried something different the other day. Painting. No,,,not like painting painting,,,I mean really painting....like all Van Gogh-like. I have never really painted anything.

My intention was to do the transfer thing from the Graphics Fairy. Which I did.

But it barely transferred. I dont know what Im doing wrong. All I managed to get was the outline

of the butterfly and the faint writing of the letters.

So I started to outline the whole shebang in black liner. And then I thought, hmmm, how hard can
it be to paint in the colors??? I have some artist brushes. If it doesnt work out, Ill just sand the whole thing off and start over. Its only paint!!! So thats what I did.
