Le Soleil

Both mediums of plaster and resin have been brought together to make up this piece.
I hand cast the large plaster sun, then built up layers of acrylics, crackle medium & graphite mica flakes on the slate. I then layered high quality resin with acrylics, shimmer pigments and gold leaf, these are then fused together using my blowtorch and it is this that creates the complexity of textures and various dimensions of the colours. Each layer requires 24 to 48 hours to cure before the next is applied, so some pieces can take several days. The sun is then hand painted with the addition of gold leaf before it is laid onto the slate.
I love the depth and sumptuous richness of the various shades of creams & golds that flow through this piece.
