  • Finally applied Finnabair vintage gold over the textured surface.
  • Then generously splashed with Finnabair Art Alchemy paints Sparks: Dragon'e eyes.
  • Centrally added a golden thread, to it added Finnabair mechanicals Wings and Tin heart which were black gessoed and waxed with Vintage gold and Rose gold respectively.
