    QUESTION - Is there an alternate adhesive to use rather than an animal skin glue? I am a vegetarian and cannot face using that kind of glue. I appreciate your suggestions.

    Thanks for your video! I have a question - if you are double layering, how long do wait after the 1st layer/burnish, do you use regular size to apply the next layer of leaf? Many thanks 🙏

    Great demo. If I don’t want to gild can I apply a watercolour wash over the gesso?

    Is there a length of time you have to start adding the gold to the bole ?

    A fantastic instructional video, really valuable information.
    Can I ask, for a beginner is it advisable to use imitation leaf (given the cost of the genuine thing) until the process is learned?

    • @PictureFrames
      @PictureFrames  10 місяців тому +3

      Many thanks for your comment. Working with Dutch metal leaf (imitation gold) is completely different as it can be handled without tools and behaves in a very different way to precious metal leaves. The only way to learn to use the cushion, gilder's knife and tip is with the real thing. Somewhere in the video, I probably talk about the "perfect level of imperfection" - the point being that an imperfect result will have a unique character which is what separates a hand made frame from one finished in a factory...

      @@PictureFrames Well, my first attempt was certainly a challenge - but good fun and rewarding. The toughest part was undoubtedly laying the leaf. Despite the very many imperfections and having to embrace the faults, even my amateur effort produces a rather beautiful frame. I'd share it here if UA-cam allowed it. But I'd suggest everyone give it a go.
      Do you mind if I ask about painting over the gesso. If I wanted a frame that was black, with gold on the inner part of the frame, what sort of black paint is best? Do you use a black bole over the red, or is there a preference for a particular type of paint?
      Thank you again for the video, I wouldn't have been able to give this a go without it.
