plaster & acrylic
This is the beginning of the transition between my "Atoadment" series and my summer series. I have long been enchanted by fireflies ( lightning bugs!) and the magic of summer nights.
Just like all of my plaster paintings, this piece has deep textures and a highly polished sheen and slight iridescence, giving it a glass or ceramic look.
The piece was created with plaster on a canvas panel, and then painted with layers of acrylics.
There is a slight gold iridescence in the base layer that shines through, giving this piece depth and a glow from within. I used multiple layers of vibrant, highly saturated color on this piece, and the color and iridescence cannot be captured with a camera which is why I have included several angles and texture details.
16"x 16", Framed in a black, gallery profile wooden frame, this piece is currently in The Artistic Hand gallery in Oviedo, FL.
