Another attempt at gold leaf. Now I realize the first time I tried I was using glaze and not the adhesive. So the leaf was not sticking.
I have two images below, one of them has a much more dramatic light effect. I wanted to include both. Merry Christmas!

I was reading the story of the demoniac from the gospels and the below are a few ink studies I did based on the story. In my head I just saw this very isolated and lonely man, not in his right mind and knowing that no one can help.
So this is my continuing series of drawings based on The Dream of a Ridiculous Man. I do plan on eventually inking these and adding some color. I've been drawing on 18*24 paper recently, finding it much more freeing to move over the larger surface and fill it up with big shapes.
A quick summary of the story: the main character is an introspective outsider who goes home one day intending to commit suicide. He has a dream where at first the world is ideal and creation is perfect, after which he is the seed that plants sin and the eventual fall of the world. He wakes up and after having seen the way the world should be, he reclaims purpose in his life. The edges are very rough. Will try again soon after I get some other materials, I get the feeling I'm doing something wrong here.
