A grottesca style design over an ebony texture. The design was painted to appear somewhat like inlaid precious stone, and I used metallic mica powders to add to it's dramatic appearance. This technique is also known as faux scagliola, or pietra dura. For more info visit http://patricias-palette.blogspot.com/2007/10/recent-mural-commissions.html
