Gilding the sun and moon with pure gold and palladium leaf.

Gilding the sun and moon motive which crowns one of ‪@Tashi-Mannox‬ Laughing in the Face of Death art print series.
This one in particular is titled Laughing in the Face of Attachment.
"Red is the colour of passion and attachment. Avarice is all consuming, like a fire that burns up with devastating destruction - The antidote of grasping is generosity, the first of the ten perfections and wise to practice."
For easy and best gilding results Jerry’s marvellous ‘pink stuff’ is the finest quality gilding size there is.
First painted in the area to be gilded, to which in this case, adheres 25.6 ct gold leaf for the sun and pure Palladium leaf for the crescent moon.
As gold and Palladium are base metals, they will not tarnish to maintain their bright lustre.
All Tashi Mannox's art-prints are museum conservation Giclée printed on sustainably sourced natural white bamboo fine art paper, at 290 g/m².
