Realms of Fantasy.

[Prospero]

I've just finished this frame. Original painting, rather weird but nicely done.
I was quite uncertain on how to tackle it but I went with an idea and this is how it turned out.
I'm quite pleased with it.

2" liner painted off-white.

Center panel base-coated with black gesso and finger-textured. Covered with gilt varnish and
rubbed back. Sort of beaten bronze effect. Edged with two angular mouldings that I have had for years. These look black but are very very very dark blue.

Excellent closed corner design.
I hope the client was pleased.
But, I didn't know that someone had actually painted a picture of how I arrived on Earth....

That turned out great! Thanks for sharing.

Huh, I didn't see you. I was up on the Lido deck. Where were you?

I was down in steerage with the other second class passengers....
