Platinum/Palladium over Gold Leaf
Platinum/Palladium over Gold Leaf
These are my first platinum/palladium over gold leaf prints. The hand-coated platinum/palladium sensitizer is brushed onto a thin vellum paper treated for maximum translucency. The 24K gold leaf is applied to the back side of the print. The color of the image highlights is the gold itself shining through the membrane-like vellum. I’ll be teaching the process in my summer workshops.
