Two separate wood slices shown together. These celestial moths were drawn, then painted and varnished. Wood slices purchased from local CO business, then sanded and drilled by me. Moon phases and small details done with metallic paint.

#astroart . A small figurine of a dragon with feather like details along its back. It is painted blue and has white stars across its body. It is balanced on my pointer finger and is only a little over 2 inches long.
