It was an experiment she did with oil pastels on a gold acrylic ground. The gold doesn't show up so well with the scan so I took some photo's on angles with added light to catch the gold. I wanted you to see the gold acrylic ground.On Robyn's blog you can see more of this technique she is playing around with(or messing around with, as she calls it...). How does the saying go..."One person's mess is another person's treasure"...?
...the gold reflects beautifully in the dark corner bottom left...
...more golden reflections on the ground and a view on "Giornata mondiale del teatro"...
Thank you for my golden treasure, Robyn!

Just beautiful! Rich rich rich.
Wow - what a neat effect and a lovely card! Robyn has done you proud.
Brilliant description, detail photo, and stamp collage making sure we all see as much of each element of this wonderful card as possible!
Love the light and geometric shapes in this one!
that scratching through to the gold is working beautifully Robyn
- and well done for those great photos Ronelle to show the effect properly
A gorgeous card - love the geometric big shapes with the rich and delicate detail coming through. Going to have to try this technique in 2012...
This is such a simple composition but it has great strength and great design. I love it.
Thank you for all the generous and encouraging comments. It's a great start to a new year of art.
What an insteresting experiment. Really beautiful colors.
