The Art of Gilbert and George, Gordon's Getting Us Drunk, front and back boards.

The gold is on, the resin is set, all is right.

Going to Japan for a few days.......

The Art of Gilbert and George, Gordon's Getting Us Drunk, Gold Leaf and paint stripping.

The resin has done its stuff and the gold leaf has been applied to the back board. The effect is about what I am looking for. More work to do and time is not on my side....



Paint stripping for the binding of Brave New World.....................

The Art of Gilbert and George, Gordon's Getting Us Drunk.

The back board, a label from an empty Gordon's Gin bottle. Some of G and G's early work feature Gin.....

The Art of Gilbert and George, leather is on...

As the new year is behind us the bench begins to fill with work.
Gilbert and George is well on the way with initial dye stuffs on and then covered.

I have made a practise board for the next few steps as I am after a particular finish to the book...... it may all go wrong but life will be fun.
