Original Acrylic Painting of a Purplish Copper Butterfly on New York Slate

This is an original acrylic painting on Granville, New York slate, titled "Purplish Copper". I fell in love with slate when I lived in Saratoga Springs, New York. It was in 2010 that I made a trip to Granville and found this gorgeous slate. I collected and smoothed down the rough edges of the slate before I started painting.
I painted a purplish copper butterfly and some green plant stalks on this beautiful piece of New York slate. This is one of the first pieces I painted when I was teaching myself to paint.
I sealed everything with a UV resistant clear coating to protect the artwork.
It is 5 x 4.5 inches.
I really enjoyed painting this and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
A free display stand is included.
