The Advanced Workshop Of Glass Gilding Techniques
Master the timeless art of ornamental glass gilding and lettering with this comprehensive masterclass. Across over 50 hours of detailed video instruction, I share trade secrets from decades devoted to the craft. You will explore 18 distinct water gilding techniques to find the method that suits you best, along with a dedicated signwriting section designed to teach you brush control and hand-painted lettering techniques.
Follow along from sketch to final polish as we build 12 intricately gilded letters, supported by downloadable PDFs, vector files, and line drawings. I also guide you through home studio setup—covering easels, brushes, gilding cushions, gold leaf, abalone, and paints—and share my trusted suppliers for top-quality materials and starter kits. Whether you are starting out or refining your skills, this course offers everything needed to create professional gold leaf glass art.
