This is three coats of base paint and a little varnish over the top.
This is a mobile
personal shrine to St.Neot the patron Saint of fishes.
Again, I forgot to include objects for scale, but the box is right at 3 inches.

The inside of the
cover is a copy of a vintage postcard. The giant fish is a sticker with rhinestones
affixed with glue. St.Neot is a ceramic mudman that I purchased and painted
up. The halo is a jump ring and the well he is standing on is Sculpey. The background
around the lights and at the bottom of the cover is various sized glass beads
mixed with miniature shells and low grade freshwater pearls in a clear glue
base and then just packed in with a toothpick.
Here it is plugged
in. This is my favorite of the shrines I have done thus far. I was going for
a surreal grotto look and I think I got pretty close.
