Real 100%  24 Karat Deep Double Gold Leaf ....
All meticulously Hand Applied by artist Dennis Massa.
Stunning, sophisticated & elegant.
All colors are mixed by hand, and applied and blended by hand.
I use the Leonardo DaVinci Method of blending colors
called
Sfumato,
The word
sfumato
comes from the Italian language and is derived from
fumo
("smoke", "fume"). Sfumato translated into English means soft, vague, or blurred. In Italian, the word is used often as an adjective (such as
biondo sfumato
for pale blonde hair) or as a verb (
l'affare è sfumato
would mean "the deal has gone up in smoke"). The use of the term (unlike some others) dates back to the period when da Vinci introduced it.
The technique is a fine shading meant to produce a soft transition between colours and tones, in order to achieve a more believable image. It is most often used by making subtle gradations that do not include lines or borders, from areas of light to areas of dark. The technique was used not only to give an elusive and illusionistic rendering of the human face, but also to create rich atmospheric effects Leonardo Da Vinci,
described the technique as blending colours, without the use of lines or borders "in the manner of smoke".
