About this painting
An ultra-detailed painting on a small panel, this work was executed over many 8-hour days.

Technical details
As with many of my paintings, this picture was painted using classical oil painting techniques of layering transparent glazes over a detailed underpainting. The glazes incorporate amber dissolved in walnut oil to provide the unique lustre and refractive properties of oil paintings from the Italian renaissance. Used since the 15th century, this resin can shine like silver metal when lit from the side, an effect that can be observed on beautifully preserved Elizabethan portraiture at the British National Portrait Gallery.
