I agree with Calvin totally: would love to see it life! I love that texture which gives it an old look. How did you do that? Love and Light, OLGA

Artist Reply: Thank you so much for your kind words! I use special gel for creation of a rough texture and little relief. Usually I use Acrylic Structure Gel Gloss goyo solo. I put it on the canvas, after that I draw with an oil paints using brushes and a knife for a paint. I put liquid paint in multiple layers, after that I scrape it with knife for the previous layer shone through the next layer.

Such a rich, opulent, luxurious surface you create with your paints. I would really love to see them in real life in real light. I am sure they are a shimmering delight.

Artist Reply: Ha-ha Calvin, really I'm just not a good painter, to make a rich color on the canvas is a difficult task for me. Therefore I create texture and put a lot of layers paint. It helps me "to deceive" my inability.
