The word baroque probably derives from the ancient Portuguese noun "barroco" which is a pearl that is not round but of unpredictable and elaborate shape. Hence, in informal usage, the word baroque can simply mean that something is "elaborate", with many details, without reference to the Baroque styles of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
It's very fitting to compare this work to a baroque pearl. Opalescent is a word that also comes to mind. I love the richness of the colors that you achieved by shading and the organic quality of it.
