Gold Leaf Painting | Gesso Paper

These playful dolphins are enhanced with silver watercolour and a touch of 22 carat Gold Leaf Painting. The gold leaf is laid on base of gesso, which raised the gold slightly above the paper adding both sparkle and texture to the piece.

The gesso has to be made by hand in small quantities and uses the same process and recipe as those used by the monks and scribes who created the illuminated manuscripts such the Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels.

This is a slow painstaking process as each stage requires time to dry before the next step can be taken.

This could be an ideal gift for a nature lover, or someone who finds calm in a natural environment  as I find being beside water very restful. Perhaps chosen for a special anniversary or birthday or simply a gift for someone who loves or has swam with dolphins.
