  • Our gilder, Jim Huckaby, first sealed the whole frame with a nitrus cellulose coat, then he did a series of watercolor washes, next he blended rotten stone with raw umber pigment and rubbed it on, then he rubbed with 0000 steel wool, sealed that with another coat of nitrus cellulose, and then did applied a casein wash and finally spattered it with japan paint. This gives the piece a lot of character.

    I hope this answers your question.
