A short film of Karolina Szymkiewicz (www.karolful.com) applying the gold leaf to the "MA" exhibition artwork. Please visit Karolful's blog to learn more about the exhibition: www.karolfulill...
Hello everyone that left a comment. Just a quick notice. I'd like to say this video was never meant as a tutorial. I do not run a YT channel. This video was taken using my phone for personal documenting purposes almost 4 years ago. The reason why I uploaded it to YT is because I wanted to add it to my blog where I talk about "Behind the Scenes" of the Exhibition that I had in Shanghai at the time (link in box description). No need for hate.
In that case, perhaps a title of 'Behind the scenes of my exhibition' would have been more relevant than 'Applying Gold Leaf' as YT puts you video in the list of all 'how to Apply Gold Leaf' videos....
Karolina Szymkiewicz What is the tool you’re using the “smooth” out the gold leaf? I do calligraphy but never seem to get such a smooth finish on my gold.
not sure what people are complaining about just because it didn't show the application of the adhesive (even though it's not that damn hard to apply glue to paper via brush...) but I guess it doesn't really matter since this video is almost 3 years old
Your answer is in the question. There is nothing on here that states that applying glue is a step that needs to be taken before applying the gold leaf. She does say in her comment that she never meant this to be a tutorial, and all of it was written after the fact. If you don't want any negative comments, then disable your comments. She clearly doesn't seem to mind the praise.
If it's helpful to you guys, I use monalisa gilding glue. And gold leaf. You spread the glue first onto whatever you want gold leaf, or whatever metal leaf used_ let it dry. When dry it's a bit tacky ..then use any flat brust or doing brush you can get at ant blick arts or Michael's. Instructions are on gilding glue label..good luck.. I'm sure it wasn't intentional for artist to leave out. 👌👍
Thanks... I've only used gold leaf on Calf skin or goat skin. But i do replicas (for my personal collection) of the Books of Hours. (I saw just a few pages of that book and dove in head first) my current gesso and I only use it due to my "canvas" so to speak uses, but I use white lead to create my gesso. I've used Jerry Tesslers raised gesso and it worked great but it was expensive and theres not much in there.. however I usually always frame my pieces when they are dry and use in well ventilated areas. I never used raised gesso on a canvas because of the size.. but ur gold stuck wonderfully. Just blew my mind how much of a bigger scale you work on lol. The way this came out was like nothing is ever seen... I know it's been years since the last comment. But i have been doing abstract art with gold leaf (still not on ur scale) but I'm working with different sprays and adhesives.
Beautifully done. Thank you for sharing. As for all the comments about the adhesive why don't people go to a craft store and buy a kit, or google it. lol it's not that difficult.
@T Nailz Okay? Do you have nothing better to do with your time than be immature and start a fight over the internet? No? Oh okay. I'll just move on with my life and let you stay here.
Hi, is this on paper? im trying to do it in a sketchbook but the gilding im using (windsor & newton Japan Gold Size) is just absorbed into the paper making it transparent but its not sticky. how do i get my gold leaf to stick to paper?
Hi Anyone know if you can draw over gold leaf with a 2b pencil? I’m doing a drawing and want to lay the leaf down as the base for a gold chain then draw the detail on top Thanks
It was a glue adhesive that I got recommended in the art supplies store whilst buying the gold leaf sheets. I have a suspicion that a acrylic medium would work quite well.
I'd say give it a go and test it out. It really depends on the adhesive, quality and type of paper and golf leaf you have. Test out various combinations and see what works for you and your work.
I covered the areas I didn't want covered in glue (then gold) with plain masking tape. I used diluted adhesive for the gold leaf to stick. Make sure you remove some of the glue on the masking tape before you stick it to your artwork ( I removed it by sticking it few times to your skin) Hope this helps.
not hating , just could not enjoy your vid due to horrible sound track...i use gold leaf in some of my paintings and am always inspired by others gold leafing, but i am happy i am not a musician given the sound track [ it sounds like a CD that is skipping etc ]
If you read the pinned comment. She says that this was supposed to be a behind the scenes of the painting/sketch. I'm guessing you're either joking or you just ignored to read the pinned comment and make this one to stir up drama
It would of been super awsome to show the application of glue (or whatever. Dont know cause ya didn't show). But you know, showing off is waaaay better then actually teaching. 👎
Karolina Szymkiewicz I know there's a lot of hatefull people on the internet. So I must disclaim that that's not my intentions but if it's just documentation, then why make it public? Also, why only document only one short part? I can totally understand keeping a well guarded secret...secret, but if it's a well known technique, and the cameras there in the first place, you might as well show people how to do it. There's plenty of people who make a pretty good living from just art tutorials and most of them aren't as good as you. Just a suggestion.
Hey! d low Doapsique Gaming's right!. It's also a fine art in choosing any useful compatible additives/mediums added to a chosen adhesive also. When applying any adhesive ie with an airbrush or a fine brush thus avoiding any orange peel or brush marks that will totally ruin any final airwork period . Especially with a contact adhesive you can't correct once applied. It all Starts with materials & prep, especially (facepalm) the glue!. None of which were explained let alone even remembered!. Just another vid of "look what i can do".I see you aint a perfectionist d low nor i highly doubt have any talent other than insults. Think? before you and the others start being so clever. Oh, what a shoot himself in the face' moron.
I assume you are kidding!!! It is so amazing how little it takes to annoy people. Just turn the sound off or go to the next video. Or, do one yourself. But, wow, there are so many really serious things going on the world. Be grateful you have a computer, the ability to use it, see it, and hear it - should you choose to.

Karolina Szymkiewicz so how do you apply the glue? Masking fluid on the drawing and spray glue? You could write here how you did it.
In that case, perhaps a title of 'Behind the scenes of my exhibition' would have been more relevant than 'Applying Gold Leaf' as YT puts you video in the list of all 'how to Apply Gold Leaf' videos....
Karolina, congratulations on your beautiful work! Very inspiring!
Karolina Szymkiewicz What is the tool you’re using the “smooth” out the gold leaf? I do calligraphy but never seem to get such a smooth finish on my gold.
Well i wish i could fully see how it looked like after applying the gold leaf
I learned more about how to handle gold leaf watching you than I did in many tutorials thus far. Thank you. Lovely work and pencil craft .
not sure what people are complaining about just because it didn't show the application of the adhesive (even though it's not that damn hard to apply glue to paper via brush...) but I guess it doesn't really matter since this video is almost 3 years old
ninjadove100 right? People are acting like it's so hard to just use some glue?
yeah and its not like they are on the internet where you can look up how to use gold leaf adhesive or anything...people are so stupid
Your answer is in the question. There is nothing on here that states that applying glue is a step that needs to be taken before applying the gold leaf.

It’s so cool how it goes from crumpled to smooth with a simple brush
This was so soothing to watch for some reason. I love gold on everything so i'm going to definitely try this, thanks!
what type of adhesive is that? it takes the leaf so well and lays all as 1 piece. love the technique with foam/brush
I'm not sure what the adhesive was exactly, I think it was an acrylic medium actually. Got it recommended in the art supply store and it worked.

Got something beautiful and unexpected. When all I was looking for, was ways to apply gold leaf.
Beautiful.
Koryna Ray e
WOW words cannot describe how pretty it is and how good your art looks 😍😍😍
The music is awesome and this is really satisfying to watch. Dab on all the haters!
Bamboo chopsticks are anti static so it won’t stick and it lays better. Beautiful piece.
Beautifully done. Thank you for sharing. As for all the comments about the adhesive why don't people go to a craft store and buy a kit, or google it. lol it's not that difficult.
That;s right - why wouldn't people try different glues themselves?
Good. How to remove unstuck gold leaf
Amazing work!!
Thanks x
This was weirdly satisfying to watch!!!
what type of adhesive did you use? I love how smooth it laid!
@T Nailz ???
@T Nailz but why so agressive and why those wording?
@T Nailz But its unnecessary
@T Nailz Okay? Do you have nothing better to do with your time than be immature and start a fight over the internet? No? Oh okay. I'll just move on with my life and let you stay here.
@T Nailz shut up you idiot

Hi Anyone know if you can draw over gold leaf with a 2b pencil? I’m doing a drawing and want to lay the leaf down as the base for a gold chain then draw the detail on top

Yo but the FINISHED PRODUCT DOESNT GET SHOWCASED 😭

what did you use to adhear it to the piece
It was a glue adhesive that I got recommended in the art supplies store whilst buying the gold leaf sheets. I have a suspicion that a acrylic medium would work quite well.
I'd say give it a go and test it out. It really depends on the adhesive, quality and type of paper and golf leaf you have. Test out various combinations and see what works for you and your work.
No, probably not. If you google "gold leaf adhesive" you should be on the right track...
Beautiful work my friend, well done.
How do you stop it sticking to areas you want to keep clear?
Thanks for posting the video.
You apply a thin, transparent, slow drying adhesive to all the areas you want to be covered in gold. The leaf will only adhere to those areas.
The artist never responded. I'm an artist who works with gold leaf - I responded. It's called "being helpful." End of story.
TheStockwell Thank you TheStockwell, your reply was indeed very helpful.
I covered the areas I didn't want covered in glue (then gold) with plain masking tape. I used diluted adhesive for the gold leaf to stick. Make sure you remove some of the glue on the masking tape before you stick it to your artwork ( I removed it by sticking it few times to your skin) Hope this helps.
Thanks for your reply and sharing your process info.

That was extremely boring. Didn't even get to see the finished project !!!!
If you read the pinned comment. She says that this was supposed to be a behind the scenes of the painting/sketch. I'm guessing you're either joking or you just ignored to read the pinned comment and make this one to stir up drama
DuckBerb BerbDuck It wasn't a Joke
@@StrBADCyperIgwt oh well just read the pinned comment then so you'll know why you didn't get to see the finished product
Boring 🥱
It would of been super awsome to show the application of glue (or whatever. Dont know cause ya didn't show). But you know, showing off is waaaay better then actually teaching. 👎
This was never meant as a tutorial, just documenting the creation process, that's all.

And a stupid suggestion at that! Moron!
They can upload their documents if they want. You tube isn't specifically for tutorials.

I know this video is only about 3 minutes long but the music is getting on my nerves, so leaving the tutorial before it's done.
warnut8 it’s not even a tutorial she/he said it wasn’t
THE MUSIC DROVE ME CRAZY TOO, I stayed for the whole video, but now I'm so annoyed.
Clau mute it. it's not like he/she is talking..
