Bone Painting

An additive technique of painting with large Ancient's Bone Pens and brushes to achieve a relief result. They are sprayed with a layer of chemical similar to Stogrow Plaster to seal the bone from melting under regular light, regularly sprayed. Pieces will also have small indentations to house small orbs of light, very dim as to not disturb the heat of the painting, to add illuminate part of the piece for dramatic effect.   Because the ancient's bones will harden once the light fades, it can create layers easier than other mediums. Duststone and wood like Lank Tree are harder or more dangerous to create artwork out of, and bone painting became popular once it was picked up by collectors. They are usually stored in dim areas of a house or gallery, to prolong their life.   Once a painting is damaged, usually by light from not properly sealing or intense exposure, they usually have to be taken to be fixed. For a fee and keep the prestige of the painting, the original artist can be contacted to fix if they offer that service. Otherwise a ghost artist can be contacted to fix up for a smaller fee, but a hit on the original price of the piece. All alterations, if the original painting is made by a Licensed Artist, must be notified and filed under DEPART.   It was popularized by Colind Veritnal, taught by their uncredited Frale art instructor.   More modern takes on the paintings include add in dyes to add dull color to the paintings, but most collectors agree its not as valuable as the classics, and are less desirable. Commonform have started to purchase colorful bone paintings as its much more affordable.
"This is my favorite piece by the original artist, Veritnal. It really depicts how dangerous those bridges are. I mean I've never needed to go to one. I have everything I need in the world in this paintings. The bones show me the world. Safely."

"Don't forget to keep your lantern low when entering this room. It's best to leave it out by the doorway entirely. The maid you're replacing was excused because she melted half of Tregorn on this painting."
