About this Class
Metal gilding has been used to accent objects since the beginning of time and adding colorful patinas to the metal leaf creates an entirely new level of aesthetic enhancement. In this class, students learn conventional and unconventional oil-size metal gilding methods. A variety of chemical formulations will be introduced, with a wide variety of application techniques using resists, stencils, and applicator screens that yield beautiful patina compositions on a variety of copper, brass, and silver leaf. Real 24k gold will also be used because gold does not accept a patina. Experimentation is encouraged, and students will leave with a variety of sample boards and documented formulations.
Key Points
- Understand gilding sizes and when and how to use them
- Using resists, stencils, and applicators to create lines and patterns
- Metal leaf application techniques
