Dragonflies & Fireflies Under A Golden Weeping Willow Tree in Gold Leaf, Resin, Ink, Acrylic, Abstract Night Forest Lake Painting Home Decor

Description

This painting is the story of many layers. To create an atmospheric nighttime scene, I built the base layer with ink and acrylic sprays, and sponging. The Weeping Willow and Dragonfly went in next by means of a gold leaf application followed by a resin coat. Then I did another resin coat to create an intense depth, using various colors, primarily gold ink on the water. The effect makes this painting as luminescent as a lake full of fireflies and as 3D as being under a weeping willow looking into the glow of the water and the light of the woods. Artfully resin drip sides are a unique touch.
