In this hands-on workshop, we will create a beautiful painting with incorporating golden or silver leaf (imitational), adding depth, texture, and a luxurious, radiant finish. Golden leaf has a rich history in Asian art, where it’s often used to symbolize enlightenment, divinity, and prosperity. In this class you’ll explore techniques for applying the leaf and learn how to blend it seamlessly with your paint to create striking details.
