The Wooden Hanging Structure: Designed by the artist to augment the narrative, this sculptural element is created from Asian Padauk wood (not endangered-we would never do that!) by Furniture maker Robert Post.

The Paint: ‘Old Holland Classic Oil Colours’ oil paint for the richest, most vibrant color
The Oil: ‘Chelsea Classical Studio’ Clarified Pale Cold Pressed Walnut Oil. This natural, pale, professional-quality walnut oil will not darken, and provides brighter and richer tones and hues in oil colors. This magnificent oil was mentioned many times as a favored painting medium in the writings of Leonardo DaVinci!
