    Maybe You got this inspiration from pre-Columbian subjects, but what i got here is a flashing reminder and synthesis of the Mycenaean civilization and of the so-called Agamemnon's mask!

    Hmm that very well could be and the reference to Agamemnon's mask definitely works in this case.. I wonder what has happened to D Akey I have not seen him around lately? hope everything is ok with him!!

    Perfect. Very glittery like a sultan's dream of a Las Vegas jackpot.

    Ka-chingo at the Flamingo!

    It is a sultan's dream for sure, I kind of like incorporating the gold foil into the piece, I may have to try another..

    The gold foil is amazing!

    Such a rich piece and exotic. Like the rich fabrics of India. Very nice!
