GOLD LEAF luxury painting. Relaxing Wildflower art process.

Gold leaf! I’ve been unsure about my love for gold leaf and how fiddly it seems BUT… to add finishing touches, I LOVE it! #artprocess #acrylicpainting #abstractart To give you a little background, I started painting originally for stress relief and therapy when I suddenly started having seizures 3 months before I was due to graduate from a Physiotherapy degree! My whole life turned upside down as you can imagine. But I believe ‘Everything happens for a reason’ and I couldn’t imagine my life without my art now. In 2018 I was discovered by a Publisher, Artko Ltd, who supply framed prints of my work to shops throughout the UK. My bestselling pieces are my ‘Love Trees’. My work is currently in various shops including John Lewis and Dunelm and links to these can be found below… John Lewis: https://www.johnlewis.com/search?sear...
