Painting a Goldfinch in egg tempera on a Triptych icon panel.


This is a handmade Triptych from Ukraine, it is traditionally prepared with a gesso surface and stretchers on the backs of each panel to prevent warping.
It is entirely painted in Egg tempera using yolk and pure pigments in a traditional painting method from medieval times.
