A Couple of Interesting Novelty Signs
Finished up a couple of novelty signs today for some close friends I'm visiting with at the end of the week. (They have specific meaning to each)
This one was interesting in that I used a red tinted clear to provide interesting contrast in the background field from the initial blue/purple color coat in that area. That tinted clear sits thicker in the "nooks and crannies" for an interesting effect.

23K gold leaf highlights this one. Guilding is an interesting art form and I'm very glad I took a two day seminar last year from a real expert...our own TR. :) I managed not to screw this up too badly. LOL The surfaces ideally would have been smoother, but a time crunch ensued.
