WIP - The Dryad - Part III

I finally finished my artwork “The Dryad”. I might tweak a little more tonight but this is basically how it’s going to look. I’ll send off to my photographer tomorrow to get pro photos made. I took some photos, but the light was bad today, so these are not the best shots, particularly because of all the metallic highlights on the artwork.

On this piece I used variegated metal leaf (in green), liquid gold leaf, gold ink, gouache, acrylics, oil pastels, colored pencils and ink marker. It measures 19×25” and will be for sale.

For those of you unfamiliar with dryad, are mythological tree spirits. I made mine an autumnal tree spirit, hence all the fiery reds and golds mixed in with the green in this piece.
