Grinding gold in honey while I watch Amadeus. My teacher would be ashamed of the mess I’m making. Next time I’ll be neater. #shellgold #illumination

At a manuscript gathering last night at Standford—a Korean manuscript was shared. The whole thing was written/drawn in shell gold—even the guide lines. It was the most beautiful and shiny shell gold I have seen. It has convinced me I need to sit down and grind my shell even more! Guess I know my weekend tv watching activity.
The photos do not do it justice! The shell gold was so good it almost looked like flat gold leaf.
