Gold and Oil: Painting on a Gilt Surface

In this demo, Bronwyn will demonstrate the different ways that she works with gold leaf: primarily using it as a surface to paint on, but also as an accent or adornment in paintings. Painting on a gilded surface is an interesting process, as the reflective ground shifts depending on how the light hits it, bringing different parts of the painting to life as the angle changes.
