Working with gold leaf today for the first time. A little worried about expensive screw ups. So far… so awesome!!! Shiny   Looking at my current painting thinking “Just a little more (23k) gold here. Oh so shiny! Just a little more gold there…” The package should have come with the following label. “WARNING!! Users

Between Heaven and Hell: Preview#2 – Proust Interview Deborah Scott blog.seattlepi.com “Quickie interview of yours truly along with some of my classical cartoon anatomy studies.
