A Café Table Diorama Built From Thick Impasto Paint
On a palette-knife stone base, a couple and a blue merle French bulldog sit at a small round marble table.
✍️ The base line palette-knife stone and leaf ridges is the key: hand the texture over to the direction of the knife and the whole piece turns from illustration into a sculpture you could touch. Impasto highlights can come out with soft edges in print.

A raised miniature diorama modelled entirely in thick impasto paint, standing on an oval base built from palette-knife ridges of stone and leaves, all on a plain cream ground. At a round marble cafe table sit a blonde woman with a bob, in a cream cardigan and jeans, chin resting on her hand, and beside her a blond man in an olive shirt and tan trousers; a merle French bulldog sits in front of them. Behind: a painted sky and a panel of ivy-covered wall. Around the table: woven-checker chairs, a terracotta pot with an olive tree, two coffee cups, a croissant and a vase of white flowers.
