This is a fine art print of my original oil painting, "Metamorphosis Phase 2". Relating the cocoon, monarch butterfly, and the female figure, I am bringing attention to the similar changes that take place as butterflies transform to when humans transform internally. PLEASE READ: Prints 8.5" x 11" will be sent as photographed with the white space above and below the butterfly image. I package this size in a plastic sleeve, and mail the print in a sturdy, cardboard mailer for safe delivery. ALL prints LARGER than 8.5" x 11" will be trimmed into squares by removing the excess white paper from the top and the bottom of the butterfly image. I leave a standard 1/4" white border around the edges. These large format prints are carefully rolled by me and placed in a protective mailing tube. This piece is the second part to my first cocoon painting, Metamorphosis Phase 1." These two paintings pair together nicely, or are strong on their own. When creating this piece, I wanted to imagine what the transformation process would look like half way through the metamorphosis of a human to a butterfly. A continuation of my self reflection, and acknowledgement of personal growth. If you have plans to purchase more than one phase of the Metamorphosis Three-Part Painting Series, please note that Phase 1, 2, and 3 all have varying shades of green. They are not meant to be prefect matches. I did this as a way to show the passage of time by representing changes in day through various shades of green. Each print is done by me from my home with a professional Canon printer on Canon's Pro Matte Photo Paper. Creating these prints from home allows me to examine each print to ensure high quality resolution and accurate color matching before they go to their new home. Frame NOT included. Once your print ships, I am no longer in control of how long your print will take to get to you nor am I responsible for delays💜 (Note: colors may vary depending on your display settings on your at home device). © 2020 All rights belong to Marissa Strickland This shop page is my original work and is not for copying, reproducing, or selling by others
