Garden Vase

Very cool, Howard. The effort involved comes through. Can you talk about your process a bit?

Michael the steps are:
1. Sprayed gray enamel primer
2. High gloss white sprayed enamel
3. Sprayed with an air brush mirror chrome paint that is used for plastic car models
4. Fan brushing multiple coats of high gloss acrylic varnish having yellow and red dye to yield the gold color.
5. Highlighting with gold iridescent acrylic paint hued with red acrylic paint,
6. Highlighting with the chrome mirror paint with a very small artist brush.
The inside is gold iridescent acrylic paint.

Ah, very cool! Thanks for sharing—you’ve definitely achieved a wild piece.
