A few things I have had to come to work to get on with today, the main one is the big frame in the middle photo which is over 7 ft long, it is an urgent order needed for next weekend, it will be gilded so I need to get the gesso coating on today. The top photo is a narrow slip which will also be water gilded, the bits of wood attached to it mean it is easy to move around without pulling the corners apart, as it is quite flimsy. The bottom frame has been gilded with bronze powder. The inner and outer parts of the frame will be painted.
