Dragonfly shadow-box

This was a Christmas present for my wife! I drew the dragonfly in AI and cut it out using proofgrade plywood. I then cut out the backing offset peice with mahogany and used ca glue to stick them together.

I’d be tempted to use some enamel paint for the wing patterns… I’d either paint it in or use a syringe to dispense the paint.
