How to Use Gold Leaf in Art | Two Methods to Add Gold Lines to Paintings

This gold leaf tutorial demonstrates two ways of getting thin gold lines. It's my substitute to getting gold alcohol ink lines as it can look a bit shinier than gold alcohol ink when under resin. Sometimes I like to use both gold leaf and gold alcohol ink!
Method 1 uses Pebeo Mixtion Relief that I buy from Hobbycraft www.hobbycraft.co.uk/pebeo-mi...
Method 2 uses Mona Lisa Adhesive Size, but you can use any metal leaf size that is available near you.

Brilliant. Pebeo mixtion is clearly the way to go for amateur artists.

Great video! I was wondering about the piece you showed under resin. Is there a chance for a tutorial of that piece of art including how you applied the resin? If not, would you mind leaving a description listing the main information needed? Lastly, do you sell your artwork and did you already sell the piece you showed? I've never asked anybody on here that question, but I was just struck instantly by how awesome it is. I absolutely love it! ✨🌸✨🌸✨🌸✨🌸✨🌸✨

Can you use liquitex gloss varnish if you used gold leaf on your canvas?

Is it okay to use varnish to seal off gold leaf? Thanks

@maryannpetri3230 2 жыл бұрын

Do you seal it? Use spray varnish?

I love listening to you say, "Gold Leaf" 😅. It was a really helpfully video and thank you for the product suggestions. Is there any reason why this adhesive wouldn't work for applying gold leaf to a stained glass piece?

Sorry for the delay! I think it would work well on glass, especially the mixtion relief one :)

Pouvez vous m en montrez d autres? Merci

Are those pieces you showed in the video on watercolor paper? Also is the painting you showed with the resin done on canvas? I love how it looked so thick like a piece of glass. I'd love to know, can you can get that look on cardstock, mixed media paper, or watercolor paper? 😃

@Coyasauce 10 ай бұрын

Yes it´s a watercolor paper! The painting is done a wooden art board like all of my resin art! You could experiment with other surfaces but it needs to be a solid support otherwise it will warp or sag with the weight of the resin ( and the resin would soak through any thin porous materials like paper). But if you mount paper to a wooden board then it should work fine!

Thank you for posting this video! To get a really crisp edge, can you use masking tape with the adhesive?

@Coyasauce 11 ай бұрын

I haven't tried it myself but let me know if you give it a go!

@cheri9973 11 ай бұрын

Hi, Stephen. That sounds like a good thing to try. I was wondering if you found masking tape too sticky if Washi tape would work? Of course depending on the type it might not be sticky enough. It's actually been a long time since I've used Masking tape, I usually use painters tape for crafting so maybe I'm picturing Masking tape as being more sticky than it is. Anyway, just thought I'd mention it in case you experiment with the tape. I'm also very curious to know the outcome. Have a great day/night!

Thanks for your clear explanation of both methods! How much pebeo glue do you think you need for one pack of pebeo gold leaf? I'm going to order 3 packs, how many tubes do you think I need?

@Coyasauce 2 жыл бұрын

Hmm I'm not sure but one tube normally lasts me months! If you're just doing linework like I've shown here it should last a while!

Have you tried using a liner brush for the sizing? It might make longer smoother lines depending on the length
