The Alchemist's Midnight Dance

One of the mix technique miniatures I have created this year is entitled The Alchemist's Midnight Dance and combines linocut prints on paper, acrylic colors, golden leaf and incision on canvas. It is part of the gold foil experiments I have described before, attempting to provide a higher contrast for the gold through a darken background.
Though the composition is less central, I do like the overall mix, with tiny details, different textures and various techniques.
For more works by Ana Maria Gruia, aka Goddess Gruia, visit the website, the Etsy shop - reduction coupon available till the end of 2016 - and the Facebook page.
