'Elusive Butterfly' is an NFT artwork inspired from a girl photo that I decided to create as a tribute of vintage female portraits.
I like the faces I see, how I can work on them. Inspiration lies within everything. A waitress in a two century bistro bar in Montmartre. A lady singer in a bridge in Prague.
A model's photo of the 90's?
Why women?
Their faces mirroring their emotions almost effortlessly. I capture the moment I want to keep.
When I see a photo or something that intrigues me, an image starts flashing in my head. It has a crush effect, it swallows me defines my moves as the face starts to take shape.
It's made with sumi ink on vintage book pages adhered together as a sheet on canvas and comic book art collage in the main subject.
The background it's covered with decollage of really vintage book pages from a book of 20's that I found on a journey across Europe.
'Elusive Butterfly' is a 1/1 edition, 2657x 3397pixel size NFT artwork.
