One caveat for all the viewers interested in working with composition leaf or genuine silver leaf: If you're not painting or glazing over your applied leaf, don't ever touch the leaf with your bare fingers, as the oils from your skin will absolutely tarnish the leaf. You won't notice the tarnish until after you've sealed it with a clear coat, it develops over time; but there's no kind of remorse quite like discovering that mistake on a completed surface that you put hours of effort and artisanship into....(don't ask how I know this...) I always wear latex or vinyl disposable gloves when working with Dutch metal/composition leaf or genuine silver leaf). With genuine gold leaf or aluminum leaf it's not a problem, because neither can tarnish. Hope this helps, happy creating to all :)))
@@pinkibagchi7123 absolutely you can, just know that if you use composition leaf, you'll need to seal it with a solvent-based clear coat (gloss preferred) like a quality varnish.
Ok I know this was 8 yrs ago, but recently I saw a painting using gold leaf and wanted to try do something similar myself, and I am so ecstatic that I found and watched your video first.... What an amazing lesson. Now my mind is exploding with even more ideas.
The side-by-side comparisons are very helpful, thank you! I also appreciate you sharing how any texture underneath will show through - good to be mindful in case it's something you want or don't want.
This is the BEST tutorial of gold leaf application. I'm not sure why it has so low views compared to others that are as tacky as it can get but so popular. 🙂
5/14/2020 USA Grandpa Bill: In my 72 years this is the finest, most professional, most respectful, and most courteous video I have seen. Nancy, I think you are the best.
Best instruction video ever. Thank you for being so thorough. So many examples and great explanations, dos and don'ts, so helpful with a great delivery. Great teacher.
Soooo much information! This was truly one of the most professional videos I've ever seen by an artist explaining one technique. So many gems in there. Thank you!
By far the best video on how to use gold leaf! I finally understand the whole process. I'll be continuing on to your next video. Your paintings in the background are gorgeous!
This is absolutely one of the BEST training videos I have ever watched. I have viewed many others through the years, but THIS one is the most informative, easy to watch, easy to listen to and comprehend. At first, when I saw the length of it, I thought it might be too long and drone on and on -- like too many others do. However, with yours every minute was worthwhile, and it is not filled with unnecessary blah, blah, blah. I came across your video by accident while researching the gold leafing process. I am so very happy I found it and you. I am now a true devotee off anything else you may produce in the future. I now am moving forward in attempting my own leafing projects with a lot less trepidation, but I will be holding on to this one for reference and technique reminders. I sometimes travel to Santa Fe, I know it well. If you have an actual studio where one can come visit, I would love to be able to do that sometime in the future. Thanks so much for creating such a beautifully produced, informative video. Enjoy your ice cream. You deserve it! Jana Scottsdale, AZ
Jana Thompson Dear Jana, What a lovely and complimentary note you wrote. I am so glad you have found the video useful for your work. Yes, I do have a studio in Santa Fe where I offer private lessons, and custom workshops for small groups. Please visit my website nancyreyner.com for more info on lessons, and other DVDs I have produced - some free like this one, and others are for sale. My latest book Acrylic Illuminations has an extensive section on gold leafing and painting techniques on leaf. Thanks again for taking the time to add your comment. Best, Nancy
Dear Nancy, I watched over and over your video on how to apply gold metal leaf. I thank you kindly for your generosity sharing your knowledge and experience. Truly yours, Georgina
Dear Nancy, I really enjoyed your tutorial. I am not a professional artist. However, I appreciate artists like yourself who are willing to share their expertise with someone like me. Many blessings!❤
Nancy, I have returned to this video, like - 10 times, while preparing my canvases. This little record is GOLD in itself. My appreciation and gratitude for you choosing to post it for us here as a generous gift.
Nancy, Wanted to thank you for your presentation. It’s fabulous and I’ve not watched all of it yet. After teaching for 36 years, I appreciate how you’ve organized your lesson. It gives learners much needed information without overloading and/or intimidating the novice artist. You are a just what I’m looking for in an instructor. Thank you for your knowledge and patience you’ve taken in your video. I will look for more from you.
Fantastic tutorial! You really think of everything and "protect" the beginner/novice from his (or her) own ignorance! I took lots of notes and have been DYING to get started on my paintings!! I'm going to buy your book, Acrylic Illuminations, too!
Nancy, you're a godsend. I needed a fast, simple explanation of the process and yours was by far the clearer and most concise. Good thing i found you early in my search. I'll be able to finish my pieces in time. Many many thanks.
it is the very first time i watched an entire video, you are a very pleasant lady with a very pleasant voice! i can watch you over and over again and still keep a smile on my face. very helpful, THANK YOU!
An amazing, wonderful demo. I found myself nodding and responding - even chuckling at the ice cream container bits! 😂 Almost like I was in a sign-up tutorial class myself. Well done & thank you for inspiring me with this illuminating medium.
Oh my, what an incredible teacher you are, Nancy. This has been so helpful for me, and so much fun, as well. Thank you for all your time and knowledge!
This video of yours deserves a double like!! Clear and useful information1 Easy to learn without skipping or anything! Really appreaciate your tutorial videos^^ Thank you!
Hi Kaitlin,To get clean edges with the leaf in a design make sure you do the following:(1) the adhesive should be very tacky when you apply the leaf. If your surface is very absorbent you may need 2 coats of adhesive to make sure the glue is strong enough.(2) let the adhesive dry for at least 20 minutes before applying the leaf. The adhesive should be tacky but not wet.(3) after applying the leaf make sure you burnish as shown in the video (over wax paper so the leaf isn't scratched) very hard so the leaf really sticks(4) you must wait at least 3 days after applying the leaf before removing the excess. This way the adhesive is fully dry. I like to wait a week.(5) when removing excess don't scrub hard, just lightly flick around the edges moving in the direction going away from the edges (moving from the shape outwards rather than the reverse). In the video I say I just brush over the whole surface, and I do, but if you want super clean edges you may want to take time here to brush each shape more delicately.Hope this helps!
I can't believe I watched this 49 min video and it was SOoooo Interresting that it seemed more like 10 min. and you taught us SO much in such a short time ! Thank you ! 😙💖
YOU ARE SO AMAZING , GREAT TEACHER AND VERY PROFESSIONAL , THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING ALL YOUR EXPERIENCE WHICH MAKES REAL PROFESSIONALS... YOU COVER ALL THE IMPORTANT BASICS ON APPLYING GOLD LEAF! GREAT JOB!!!
Just letting you know how much I appreciate your video! I especially like the way you use the wax paper to put the leaf onto a surface. Thanks for your great ideas!
hi i'm viewing this video from the UK. As a total novice I just want to say how clear and helpful this video was. The format, content and your delivery were great. Have ordered your book and feeling confident and so excited to try this out . Thankyou
Watching this in India. My liking for gold leaf got me to your video and loved how professionally and thoroughly you explained things. Im just beginning to paint, and god there's so much to learn 😅. Thank you so much. Fan of your art work too!!
I had to let you know that this video is the absolute best instructional video for gold leafing on UA-cam! No contest! No one else knows what they’re doing. Bravo!
It’s my first time experiencing this gold leaf process. Thanks for explaining it so beautifully. I am in isolation with Covid 19 pandemic, enough of the depressing news. It’s a great time to learn new things.🙏🏻👍❤️
I know nothing about art and I don't draw either, but I watched a gold leaf making video and I was curious about it's uses. This is a very specific and thorough tutorial, I'm only half way through but I'm really enjoying watching it! And your art is amazing! ❤
Thank you SO MUCH for providing such comprehensive and well laid out instructions! You have definitely reduced my fear of the gold leafing process (that wax paper trick alone is an absolute revelation!). I've added your book to my to-buy list, and I look forward to trying out all of the crazy painting techniques that I can possibly manage! Best of luck with your art career, and may the inspiration always be with you.
Thank you! Of all the "how to gold leaf" videos I've seen, yours is the best! I had no questions after watching your demonstrations! NONE! Thank you so much! I love your artwork, especially the picture of the cranes behind you❤
Thank you so much, Nancy for this wonderful video and your method of sharing your knowledge, that I appreciate so much. Love your artwork. I've seen your videos several times already, because even watching you work is an art itself. Gorgeous pictures and colors. I'm going to buy your book too, so I can enjoy seeing your work any time I want to. One day I might give it a try using gold leaves. So beautiful! Thank you so much being so kind and inspiring.
Thank you for sharing this has become my new interest as I've been Accenting in Gold paint for years. I've looked everywhere for explanation and have found little, I'm so excited to go on this journey with you ❤
Such a thorough and easy to understand tutorial on the method ,usage, techniques on gold leaf. Yay! I'm thinking about doing tears flowing from a drawing of my eyes, looking at my daughter who passed during covid . I always thought the adhesive had to be thin to adhere. After seeing your dripping method( which looks dimensional), I will practice on something before I attempt it on my drawing. Tks a million❤️
This is an excellent tutorial on all aspects of using metal leaf. Very informative and gives excellent tips to make it easier to use. Highly recommended
Thank you Nancy, this is my very 1st video on gold leaf applying. I have some but have not used it as of yet. Your detailed tutorial was very well made and for beginners, very helpful. Thank you for your and excellence on this subject.
I love how you speak with minimal quick words whole simultaneously being very thorough in your explanations . Very good tutorial and I learned quite a bit . THANK YOU
Thank you so much Nancy. I was given some gold leaf but have never really used it. This was so informative and I am looking forward to giving it a try.
@@nancyreyner8417 I haven’t bought any yet. I want to use it around the edge of some painted tiles. Then resin over them. I will let you know. I am excited to try.
That's so generous of you, I'm flattered. Is there anything specific that your struggling with that might make a great instructional video for you next, Fiona?
I stumbled onto your video with no reasons to stay and watch. However your simple, clear and professional instructive demonstration was so calming and interesting that I watched to the end and now thinking to try Gold leaf projects. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and talent!!!!!
WOW, Great video for beginner or advanced artist, so much useful information and presented in a easy to follow and understand video. Obviously Nancy put a great deal of thought and effort into creating a good teaching video. I can't wait to get started using my gold leaf.
The two minute intro is solid, very helpful. I'll comment when I'm finished, but for now, I'm really excited to get started and learn from you. Thank you for sharing your experience with all of us. :)

Onley if it's imitation gold leaf, I would assume
Can we apply gold leaf to an oil painting ?
@@marcconley7037 composition leaf = imitation gold leaf; different names for the same product type...
@@pinkibagchi7123 absolutely you can, just know that if you use composition leaf, you'll need to seal it with a solvent-based clear coat (gloss preferred) like a quality varnish.
Thankyou !! ❤️
watched the whole video, now I know how to apply gold leaf. You go girl !!!
Wow, what a model of clarity and helpfulness. If only more UA-camrs were this professional!
Pourinc auf Vasen
Everyone is an artist. Professional is how you feel. Expressions in the art is the importance. Never worry about skill.
I agree very professional in your teaching methods. Artistic talent is not in doubt. Beautiful work.
Couldn’t agree more!
There's a lot of really good tips here not only about gilding but also about painting. Thanks so much for sharing!
