Techniques

How a picture appears in a room depends on the technique. Gilded surfaces change with the light that falls upon them, in comparison : charcoal remains matte and the same throughout the day

OIL OVER GOLD LEAF/ SILVER LEAF

Silver leaf, gold leaf painting

Gold/silver leaf is applied by hand and then painted over with oil paints. The real metal lies beneath the oil paint and shows through in the thinner areas. The tone of silver leaf is cooler than that of gold, so the image appears more subdued. The supports are canvases or wooden panels.

 

Canvas/wood panel surface · Sizes from 20 cm to 200 cm · Price from CHF 300

OIL WITH COLD WAX
