Folk Naive Madonna Painting in Celtic Frame



This folk style Madonna is painted in rich deep rust tones set against a beautiful teal background. Starting with a plain wooden frame, I’ve created a rustic raised relief carving of Celtic knots and braids using texture medium finished with gold leaf to create the feeling of aged gold.
