In this video I apply gold leaf to two projects, one a print of a watercolor painting and the other an acrylic ink painting. One uses imitation gold leaf and the other 23 carat gold.
If you'd like to see the process of painting the acrylic ink piece, I'm making that available as a ko-fi exclusive video for my supporters, published on 17th Feb 2024. ko-fi.com/loudavis
