By: iLia Anossov (fresco) of iLAdesigns - Fresco School
Dolphin Fresco is a fine example of combining Ancient Pompeian Fresco method, when colored Intonaco Plaster was used to achieve uniformity of background color, Early Mediterranean laconic imagery design and Renaissance style of verdaccio underpainting is used to create a new interpretation of Classic Theme seamlessly integrated into contemporary setting.

An artist painting in buon fresco must paint with paints made from pure minerals which have been ground into powder and mixed with water. Artist must paint on the wet calcium based lime plaster before it dries. As plaster cures paints applied become trapped within the newly formed calcium crystals becoming one with the wall. The best calcium lime for fresco is made of marble or fine limestone.
"We import lime for our frescoes from Florence, Italy where it is made from pure Carrara Marble. And as lime in plaster cures it becomes once again - marble, it is like painting with "Molten Marble" - said artist iLia Anossov (fresco).
