Paper abstract artwork 'Galaxy'

A unique "GALAXY" Beautifully framed in a white wood frame 78 x 78 x 4 cm 

This piece comprises of hundreds of individually crafted, hand cut and hand painted paper feathers that are individually painted with a beautiful high quality acrylic paint in soft pastel colours. These feathers are then carefully layered on a high quality white canvas to create the unique 3D design. 

This artwork isn’t behind any glasswork or Perspex as it’s designed as 3D paper collage on top of the canvas where you can feel and see the textures and dimensions.  
From a distance the artwork looks like a painting or a print but the closer you get to it, you will start to see the 3D design and its texture. 

The feathers themselves are made of a high quality thick multimedia paper and painted in a high quality acrylic paint.   
The canvas itself has been painted with silver gesso as a first step .

The finished artwork is then sprayed a number of times with a satin artist spray finish protection coat ( MICADOR, which is an invisible plastic coating that provides a soft and permanent barrier to dirt, moisture, salt and staining)   
Due to the choice of the paint, paper and canvas I have not noticed any levels of dust attaching itself to the artwork. If required a very gentle feather dusting will displace any dust that may have attached itself to the artwork.
