Mists & mellow fruitfulness





Experimenting with glass bead paste and lava paste, along with gilding flakes and interference medium, you can see the effect I achieved with this painting. I have thoroughly enjoyed the process.
Varnishing was interesting and I had to literally drizzle the liquid over it very carefully so as not to disturb the glass beads, that was because I was using high gloss varnish to bring out the shine, I think in hindsight I may spray it over next time. 

I hope the photographs have captured the textures and shine for you to see. 


This painting is called "MISTS AND MELLOW FRUITFULNESS" 
And has now found a new home!
