Gold Leaf
What are the proper techniques to use when incorporating gold leaf into an oil painting? I am interested in details with respect to the surface underneath the leaf, and how and whether it is sealed and/or varnished at the end. I seem to recall seeing images of Ron Sherr (oil) and Doug Dawson (pastel) using leaf...but for the life of me, can't put my fingers on them.
Thanks,
Chris
