Being a retired Signwriter I was amused watching you apply the gold leaf. If you are going to do this often I would recommend you buying a Signwriter's Gilding Tip which is made of fine squirrel hair and picks up the leaf easily and can be applied and tamped into the crevices with the same brush. Get the 4" not a small one. Great video.
When I worked at Seaworld in Orlando, the shop I worked in was and probably still is divided into a sign shop and a scenic arts shop. I was a scenic artist, now retired. I have watched a 'seasoned' sign painter apply gold leaf to a sign that's on the Journey To Atlantis gift shop. He used real gold leaf and we were up in a scissor lift. I was painting some of the graphics while the guy applied the gold leaf. It was really interesting to watch him do this. He used a badger hair brush and it was his own personal brush.
You are so unique fun and generous with your knowledge. I've got a big smile on my face that will last a while as I skip off into my day...my studio. Thanks heaps.
Tip (from a framing shop owner) : Use a color matching marker (preferably wood markers) on the edges of your frame so the joints won't show the raw wood..😉. Love your frames!!! You did a wonderful job.
While I love what this man does and shares, the title of the video is, ‘’how to make your own…’’ and he proceeds to own and have at his fingertips super expensive tools to make those expensive frames.. While technically there is nothing wrong with his title, he’s being truthful in showing HOW to make the frames, it’s just that there really is no cost benefits offered to the viewer which is what most viewers are probably hoping for. And yes, it’s a cost benefit to him still, but regular people don’t have that space, those expensive tools or the time. While I’m certain he didn’t mean to lead people on, those who thumbs down (not me) most likely felt led on.
So refreshing to see somebody show their mistakes, I was cracking up when you started swearing at your messed up cut. I do that kind of stuff all the time. That Milford Sound painting is amazing! That has to just make a big statement when walking into your gallery.
Absolutely love the effect of the dusty finish! This video brought back memories of my 72 yr old grandmother making her own antique style frames in her woodshop, for her paintings. She purchased trim moldings and put them together with various finishes, similar to yours but not nearly as elaborate. Your frames are the perfect compliment to your breath taking paintings! Thanks for sharing with us Andrew!
Amazing. I usually feel quite critical about 'fake antique' anything. But the amount of consideration, effort, and ingenuity you have put into these frames cancels out any 'fakeness'. Love it!
Wow! The size and beauty of your Milford Sound painting is breath taking. It's like you're standing there looking at it live on location (without the sand flies). Great video. Great ideas. Thanks so much for sharing.
Milford Sound is seated in it's perfect frame! I love painting but I also am a lady carpenter! I enjoy woodworking and antiquing processes! Liquin instead of the gold leaf adhesive is a great idea! Thanks, Andrew! Your videos are super awesome!
You put so much work and give out so much knowledge in each of your videos, it's mind blowing. This one is no exception. It's always such a pleasure to watch them and listen to your talking.
Was just doing hrs of research on making my own frames then viola, there's Andrew showing me how ! Thank you, thank you for the GREAT info. Massive painting is fantastic!
Three years later, I came back to this video, bought a gilding kit, and framed one of my larger paintings the "antique way". I was a bit nervous before getting into this project but I admit it has been fun and looks awesome. Thank you for the video!
Hi Andrew, I'm a custom framer in Texas, have been for over twenty yrs. Enjoyed ur video on Frankenframes, which I do myself occasionally. Tiny tip, right before joining, before applying glue, color the inside of moulding w stain marker, same color as exterior. Helps make the join even more invisible!
As both a professional artist & framer myself, I must say you did a great job selecting the frame for your large painting! The frame's scale & colour complimented the painting without distracting you and actually draws you into the painting, which is exactly what you want!
@Michael Jones You can always learn even as a pro!!! I literally work as a custom framer, with over 12 years of experience. I am also a professional artist with over 20 gallery shows under my belt and placing top 30 nationwide in Canada for The Kingston prize.
Dear Andrew, thank you so much for showing your human side, (framework frustration) and super human efforts. The frames are magnificent and one if a kind, which we all are! As usual, your videos are jam packed with awesome instruction and you get all of us excited to try! TEAM TISCH!!!!
Awesome skill set beyond your painting skills. Very inspiring. Thank you for taking the time to show the viewers (me) the entire process. I am learning so much from many of your videos. I have painted 2 oil paintings in the past, but for the past few years I have been painting in watercolors (realism & cartoons). I am being inspired more and more to go back again using oils. Probably sooner than later. Thank you.
Dude, you are seriously talented. When you finally revealed your large painting framed on the wall, I was blown away that you actually painted that. Dang. Hats off to you.
I accidentally clicked on your channel and I am glad I did. You are great in front of the camera... a natural, as they say in the trade. I learned so much and want to try this as a hobby.
I've "ooh"ed and "ahh"ed over the frames as much as the paintings within them at times, they are certainly works of art in their own right. You've done a beautiful job with pieces of scrap material, fantastic
This was fun to watch Andrew. The gold frames look so beautiful against the beautiful blue skies. That large mountain painting is magnificient!. Thank you.
One of the things they were teaching us about gold leafing in art school is that it's not recommended to touch it with your hands because it becomes darker where you've touched it so they told us to use tweezers to hold it instead. But since you're going with an older look for the frame I think this will be working at your favour. Also makeup brushes are really soft and are perfect for pushing it in and removing the excess. Hope this information was helpful. Love your work Andrew!
This was a fabulous video. I have worked some with gold leaf and loved watching how you did. Also, the antiqueing process was fascinating. I can't work with such large frames anymore at my age but am going to try some of your techniques on smaller frames I have in storage that I haven't wanted to use. Love your teaching Andrew--you are a delight to listen to.
I think this is the best video I've watched on TH-cam. No joke I absolutely LOVE when you scraped off some off the black to show the burnt umber underneath! Thank you so much Mr. Tischler for working so hard and sharing such precious knowledge and experience with us. #hugefan
Love the video Andrew! I was wondering whether you varnish seal the frame at all? I am about to undertake gilding a frame with Schlag, but have heard it tarnishes badly after a few years unless you seal it. Thank you in advance for your advice.
Thanks Andrew. It's always nice to watch you do your stuff. You are so talented and your attention to detail shows in everything you do. Thanks for the 2 free months of skillshare too.
This is hands down my favourite video of yours, it's everything after my own heart; beautiful creativity for a fraction of a cost with generous inspiration from the past. I kept hoping for a verdigris frame as well! I so badly want to try this but live in a tiny flat
It's like you've been reading my mind. I've started making my own frames for my paintings, and this is video is spot on for what I have been interested in doing. I have several paintings now that need frames and I'm so glad that I've held off until now to make them because my imagination needed exactly this! Cheers fellow painter, thank you for sharing and for all your work.
Inspiring! And fun to see the gold leaf work. My Dad was a sigh painter in San Jose CA and I remember him working with it, I actually have his old kit and need to try it! Love your videos.
This was wonderful and right on time. I just today acquired a massive and beautiful frame in a silent auction that needs work on its gold leaf and edges. I was going to research how to repair and tone down and you covered every aspect I needed. Thank you!! I'm always on the hunt for quality, cost effective frames for my work!
You are so amazing even building your own frames I have learned so much from you thank you for sharing i wish I was younger I’m 88 don’t have the energy but I love all your videos and your beautiful paintings bless you
Wow very inspiring, I have worked gold leafing for many years, I have to complement you on your ability to gold leaf..you have developed a strategy and technique that works so well
Thank you so much for sharing your videos. I wasn’t aware you could paint over gold leaf. Love the patina looks you’ve achieved. Extremely useful information. Thanks again, Andrew! 🙂
So pleased Andrew to see you using traditional rococo style mouldings so brilliantly. I bought a huge job lot of damaged gold frames at an auction, they were originally from a London Cork Street gallery, and for very little money. After watching your video, I’ll be able to restore and use them. Great video.
Great video on DIY museum style frames! I've been trying to imagine how to do this for my own paintings and this video really helped answer a lot of questions I had. Thanks Andrew!! Great job!
Wow so amazing, you are an all rounder and so skillful . I am in Awe. I have just started my career in art and I'm so motivated to carry on after watching your videos. I hope I could visit Newzealand some day and visit your art store and buy one of those unique frames . The world needs more people like you . Great work !!!
After watching this immediately I went to the tip, garage sales, and salvos stores and found a bunch of frames and finally made my own. I then applied too much antiquing to the frames but I love that I did cause it creates an ancient shipwreck aesthetic which Would be perfect for a seascape! Thank you for sharing this Andrew, Love your vids keep it up!👍

I will give this a shot! Thanks for the tip!
Is that what I see Kafka using when he uses gold leaf.
@@BengtRosini13 Don't know Kafka
You only need a squirrel gilders tip when applying real gold, not for metal leaf.

Wow, I came here to see how I can make one.......nevermind, I'll just keep searching estate sales, thrift shops, etc. You are a Master at this!
Easy if you have the tools! I will search out old frames too!
Clamp with bicycle inner tubes. Attach together as needed. You can exert an amazing amount of force with these.
Wow! What an idea, I had not thought of that before. :)
oooh! what a great idea!!

Look at you go, Andrew, everything you touch turns to gold the Lord has blessed you with wonderful talents.
this kind of paintings will be like proof for generations to come , how it was once the earth!
with love from Italy 💖
Try mixing rottenstone (
weathered siliceous limestone used as a powder or paste for polishing metals) with your liquin for that dusty effect.
The dedication to this video alone was reason enough to subscribe! Beautiful work!! DD

Great tips Joana, This isn't gold though, its schlag. I wonder if it would have the same effect.

Learned from this no doubt.
Beautiful frames. Nicely done. You are very talented
I absolutely love buying old, discarded frames and customising them to fit my paintings! So many great tips here! Thank you!
yup...I browse the thrift shops, for a couple of dollars, a great frame to redo. :)
