There’s a few smudges of paint that picked up the gold so it has a really annoying fingerprint on the white to the right and some other little bits I’ll have to paint over white somehow.
I’ve got bits of gold everywhere! I’m having a lot of fun doing some art again though :)

Have you ever seen a real gold gilded fan leaf before?
Well now you have!
It’s messy but fun 🤩

‘It’s ruined, throw it away!’
Nah, it’s a first go, I’ll get better at it :)
Maybe I can make it an actual fingerprint of glue and go over it with a larger thumb print in gold?
Maybe I need to do this the other way around…
I have silver leaf too, I might have to go silver on the next! It’s the last leaf dried and pressed I have.
They’re very fragile so I sprayed them with a few coats of clear varnish. Also protects from fading as more UV resistant.
Then used spray mounting glue to apply to the drawing :)
