About artwork on flower paintings

Each of the poppy flowers in this painting was evenly sculpted in low relief earlier than being painting in pure egg tempera made from compressed stone. This beautiful painting of poppies will previous for centuries. The surface of this artwork will take your breath away!

These flowers in this artwork were first sculpted in low relief previous to being painted in pure egg tempera made from compressed stone & egg yolk. For my orange colors I use only usual ochers from the French quarries of Gargas and Rustrel, nested in a 12 miles long commune, in the heart of the Luberon Mountains. The soft greens come from the earth approximately Verona Italy and from Bavaria.
