So....I've been working on this for a WHILE!! The reason: I couldn't find ANYWHERE how to put gold leaf lettering on a canvas!!! In the end this is what I guess would be called a "mixed media" painting: gold leaf lettering, an acrylic underpainting, oils, and for the " coup de gra", glitter!!😁 I used an idea put out by Paul Ranson and made it my own so I could use Christmas colors. Overall, I like it. Hopefully, others will too!!!!
