ambers birthday gift
		this page shows the watercolor i did for her sept 2005
		this is the entire framed watercolor of dragonflies and water lilies			closer to the image
					in this extreme closup you can see the transparancy of the wing allowing the color of the leaf to show through, to achive a slight color shift and irridecence a thin layer of white pearl acrylic was used on the wings
		closer yet
		here you can see the subtle shift as one wing overlays another
