Session 1:
Students will learn how to lay yellow Kohlner
Instacoll gilding base. They will also use Kohlner Activator. They will learn
how to apply 23 karat patent gold leaf to the gilding base.
They will learn how to clean up and repair their
gilding. Highlighting around the gilded image will also be covered.
They will finish a simple project on good paper.
Session 2:
Students will learn how to prepare and lay clear
Kohlner Instacoll gilding base and
use Kohlner Activator. They will learn how to apply six different loose leaf
metals to the gilding base. They will learn how to clean up and repair their
gilding. They will do further highlighting around the gilded images. They will
finish a slightly longer project on good paper.
Session 3:
Students will learn how to lay acrylic gesso in
conjunction with
Kohlner
Instacoll to create a more raised, smooth
gilding base. They will become more adept at using loose leaf metals. They will
finish another moderate project on good paper.
Session 4:
Students will learn how to lay sculpted and
textural gilding bases, and gild a variety of metals atop them. They will learn
clean up and repair for these bases. We will go over suggested uses and
examples. They will finish another moderate project on good paper.
Because all of these courses are personal lessons, we will proceed
at the singular pace that is comfortable for you. The course description
is simply an outline to suggest a series of goals individuals may want to arrive
at.

Students will have the (HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED) option of ordering a “Gilding Kit” ($40) from me, which will be
more cost effective than having to purchase all the gilding supplies separately.
