Robin is an artist who has a unique stamp: he works on gold and silver leaf. The style of completely covering the canvas with gold or silver, and in some cases both, is unusual to say the least. Also, being particular to an art movement called Assemblage. Very similar to collage, but instead of 2 dimensional, it also includes 3 dimensional objects

The Great Michelangelo
I thought that you might like to see a portrait painting of Michelangelo. Unfortunately I was not the one that painted this portrait, it was done by Jacobino Del Conte. Here is a little more information about Michelangelo:
Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (6 March 1475 – 18 February 1564), commonly known as Michelangelo, was an Italian Renaissance sculptor, painter, architect, poet, and engineer who exerted an unparalleled influence on the development of Western art. Despite making few forays beyond the arts, his versatility in the disciplines he took up was of such a high order that he is often considered a contender for the title of the archetypal Renaissance man, along with fellow Italian Leonardo da Vinci.
