Giant, ornate cactus-trimmed green picture frame mirror

This beautiful antique, densely decorated picture frame once adorned the walls of a church. Now it has been revived in a new, more modern, vintage style. I painted the frame in a gradient of cactus and tired green, then used grey, white and gold to highlight the beautiful ornaments. Its new function lives on as a mirror. I closed it with silk gloss parquetry shapes.
