Process
I had a specific chandelier that was both modern and traditional and I wanted the ceiling to reflect that. The chandelier had this gold leaf bronze quality to it, so I brought that up to the ceiling creating an extension of the chandelier. The image was inspired by an old vintage clock and sundial.
Execution
After sketching the design, I glazed it with layers of metallic, hand painted the details, and then added the gold reflective leaf. I then burnished it to give it a real antique quality.
Detail
Everywhere you stand you get a different effect with the gold leaf.
