Broken Ammonite Detail # 3

This is a large painting incorporating the use of wax and oil on canvas. The image is losely based upon observations of an ammonite held in my own collection. The central image has been painted using traditional methods and the outside stone effect has been achieved by building up layers of painted wax.
