The New Frey Dining Room

 

Before


 
 

Yucky blah. This is after the rose border was removed from the top and the rust red painted over on the bottom.

 
     

After



 

Done with several layers of glaze over the yellow base. I tried real leaves for the shadows on the upper part, but they tended to flip around and get bogged down easily by the paint. Using straight pigment in layers of clear glaze makes the colors interact a lot with the light. This looks like a completely different room at different times of day.

 

That light fixture is gone now!
