Aspen Vase

12" x 15 1/4"
First try at collaborating with my wife. After vase was turned, two coats of black gesso was applied. Then my wife used metallic acrylic paints, dry brush method, to achieve the stripes, slightly overlapping the colors. Colors used were super copper, peacock, and olive green. The neck color is granite. Finished with 6 coats of lacquer. All comments and critiques welcome.

Sometimes the photo doesn't do justice to the physical reality.....and, I suspect your vase is a case on point. I really like the use of color, and it has a metallic look to it that comes off well.

Overall, very tastefully done, and deserves a "ten" rating!
