one of my latest works, "Cosmic Clouds". 10"x2" Sycamore with ebonising lacquer and Jo Sonja paints.  C&C's always welcome.

Lovely effect. Did you aim for this or name it after it was finished?

Hi Garry....When I opened this thread my immediate thought was that George would like this. In fact, I reckon that Jo Sonja would also be pretty pleased with it, too. A stunning combination of colour that is just so well applied.

Hi Pete, cheers for the comments, I did aim for the effect but the name came later, taken from a few comments from friends.

Gary,

Welcome to the Forum.

Where would modern paints ever be without Mica. This is a really effective and creative use of Jo Sonja paints.

Thanks for sharing.
