While I was researching and interviewing some of the professional Iranian painters, some of whom were miniaturists, I came cross an ancient Persian painting technique that we don't use anymore.
In this technique, while the painting is still wet the artist grinds gold paper over the painting; this technique can also be applied on dried paintings; however, the painting should first be brushed with some oil or terbantine.
So I used this unique technique to give an ancient look to my painting.
