I was listening to Pandora like I often do as I work in my studio, and the song from Plumb “Beautifully Broken” began to play. The words just resonated in my heart, and I found myself replaying the song over and over while soaking it all in.

I painted with metal leaf and I liked it! I think you will too because gold leaf adds a touch of elegance to paintings that is not only beautiful, but eye catching. I love painting my Princess, Prince, and Crown paintings, but I was wanting to push the paintings further. Isn't that what us creatives do? I strive to always push myself towards growth by experimenting with new ideas as well as keep myself from getting bored with the same processes. So when I saw that you can use metal leaf in paintings, I knew I had to try it.
