BG, the metallic flakes in this paint really simmer. Photos don't begin to capture the richness and liveliness.

Actually, the paint is sun-faded in certain sections. I tried to harmonize the tonal differences by using the splashes of color - reds, greys, black, yellow - as I did. Distractions, pretty distractions.

Thanks,
