So wonderful... I especially love the textures you've captured in the window behind the security grate. Almost Japanese in feel.. .the way you've treated the surfaces so decoratively.
Olga, I'm as curious as you are about the technique and materials used. It looks like there's a lot of texture; the door actually 'shines.' Great work.
Artist Reply: Thank you all for your kind words. I was away and being new here didn't realize I was going to get so many responses. I do use a lot of different materials. For instance, the floor has pieces of actual sea glass that a friend gave me - behind the gated window, I used images from World News Today ( because they are funny) and the door is first covered in plastic and then painted over. I use a lot of glitter, sand, pencils, magic markers and the fan is made out of an old piece of tablecloth and then painted and the man's pants I first covered in cheesecloth and then paint.
Thank you for your interest in my work.
