The near-fractal dimensionality contrasts the utter blackness perfectly. I love it.

I don't know about how the modern art world does it but varnishing a an antique painting is very bad. Varnish shrinks over time and pulls the paint with it, causing it to crack. I know one guy who works at a premier auction house. His job is to remove the varnish from rare paintings. You'd be amazed how many paintings turn up that were stolen from museums by the Nazis.

And by the way, that is some superb work!

Good for you to have finished it. I like the blackness setting off the riot of color.
