painting with gold leaf

Hey ya'll! I'm taking a break from renovation updates for a week or two. I have so much to tell you. I can barely stand the wait, but I think it's best to let everything get finished and then share everything. In the meantime.... To get my mind off the fact that I'm living out of a Jansport and finding dust in places dust should NEVER be, I made some art. I came home from this awful routine early yesterday, put on my Jesse sweatpants, put the roommates elsewhere (because as we learned last…

Pinterest and I have a love/hate relationship right now. I love being inspired, but its eye candy overload: I get distracted from things I should be doing, like working on the as yet unfinished drywall repair in the bathroom. Instead, I wind up working on projects I shouldbe saving for a rainy day - like my new office map art that I made with gold leaf. It just so happens that it’s been pouring this week. My blogging friends are also total enablers, and come up with awesome share spectacles…

Hey ya'll! I just got back from Michigan on Tuesday (more on that later), and I was finally able to put the finishing touches on a little art project I've been working on. This isn't my first attempt at gold leaf art (you might remember this one or this one), but I really wanted to make a larger piece with some hints of pink and purple for the office.

This one of a kind large abstract artwork is textured with a mixture of acrylic paints, gold leaf, and resin coating to create a truly unique and serene abstract original. The painting has a "glass coat" layer of epoxy resin to add a thick high gloss sheen to piece. Looks beautiful in natural light!! This Ikat original abstract style painting on a gallery quality canvas includes shades of gray white, gold, silver iridescent glitter, and touches of silver and gold leaf. This is a signed…

Please note: this piece has been SOLD, but I'd be more than happy to make you a similar piece! Please convo me if interested. Thanks! Soft, iridescent sparkling gold, layers thick and thin, matte and shiny, broken and smooth, in golds, warm and cool, droplets of gold cascading streaks of moisture, all remind me of the strata of sandstone near Torrey Pines Beach and State Park in La Jolla, California. This little treasure is 10" h x 8" w x 1 inch. thick. An original mixed media painting on…
