Sparkling Strawberry Chocolate Swirl

Many of my pieces do their own thing, this piece really just went with it's own flow.  It was initially gold on black, there is a lot of underlying texture in this piece of work.  It has this stupendous name because when I look at it I see melted caramal chocolate.  The gold and copper foil accentuates the texture.  Once I added the bronze foil, the piece decided it would turn brown and once I added the varnish, little cracks appeared on the surface of the varnish which actually adds to it's character.  I'm going to say I didn't have much control over the outcome of this piece, it wanted to do it's own thing.  On the base, I have used 3D modelling paint and underneath there lie some glowing red beads.  It almost looks like it's a little rusty.  I should really call this piece - I'll do what I want to do and be what I want to be.  Anyway, it's unique and has some gorgeous rich colours and of course oodles of gold and bronze foil.
