Spring Butterflies Garden Art Recycled Metal from Haiti, 12" x 12"
Spring Butterflies Garden Art Recycled Metal from Haiti
A garden scene filled with butterflies in 3-D. Take time to zoom in and scroll over to see the fine detailing in this piece. Every bit of beading and contour was produced one blow of the hammer at a time. A wonderful piece of handcrafted folk art from Haiti.
This 3-D butterfly wall hanging was hand cut from a 55 gallon recycled steel drum, in Haiti, using a hammer and chisel. The various details of the dragonfly were pounded out into a bas-relief, so that the details are more visible. A rust preventative solution is applied to the steel. The dragonfly is then hand painted in rich colors. It is finished with clear varnish. Similar to the painting of the Mexican talavera pottery pieces. A wonderful garden art design. Please see our video showing the process of turning a recycled steel drum into a great piece of wall art for your home. We have worked in Haiti for almost 20 years.
