I'm usually tattooing, but sometimes I make shiny things. The pandemic prevented my friends from getting married multiple times, but it finally happened!! Yayyy! The pandemic also made making shiny things difficult. With various difficulties getting the supplies I needed, I'd call this an all-around win 😁 Now to get to all those backlogged projects! #watergild #mattefinish #mirrorgold #rosegold #23kGold #whitegold (at Tattoos This Way) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjZV895tcNP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hooray! Recipient got his surprise gift, so I am able to post this now! ✨ 🎉 ✨ Reverse glass, hand painted. 12 carat white gold oil and water gild with enamel paint. Fun and challenging project for myself and @stickandpoke because teamwork makes the dream work!

*IN PROGRESS* One of my favourite letters to paint. Not sure why.🤷🏻🤔😎 Few more bells and whistles to add. This piece will be pretty awesome...once it's cleaned.

Learning experience. Came out ok! Acid-etch is a pain to get gold to stick to. Looks cool though. Tried some new paint. Hoping to find a store that's open to buy a frame from. ---- ---- #acidetch #learningbydoing #handpaint #goldleaf #watergild #WorstVacationEver2020 #alphanamel (at Tattoos This Way) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBBSpT1go1a/?igshid=1d3h8gq3qqr0q
