Acrylic on Archival Gessobord with 3/4" Birch Sides, 12x12", Ready to hang!
Today's painting involves an underpainting and a handmade paper painted overlay. This is the first time I've tried this and I like the results. The underpainting has a gloss finish so it looks shiny, especially when light shines on it. The overlay has the texture of homemade paper and has a textured matte finish, which gives this combination of the two pieces a 3D effect. I liked the result, but felt it needed some pizzazz! I added calligraphic lines of Iridescent Bright Gold that really pops, especially with direct lighting.
