Artwork Description

one of a series of small works I like to do alongside my larger productions. I have looked in detail at Aussie cockatoos, fish displays from the Italian fish markets and now portraits of seagulls.

All art by Josephine Josephsen

A medieval technique used for icon work, I workshopped in Italy. Rabbit skin glue gesso is applied in many layers to seasoned timber panel; more layers of Armenian red earth bole; then water-gilded 23kt gold leaf, burnished and tooled; painted with egg tempera; then sealed with epoxy resin to protect delicate surface. This Madonna is referenced from Botticelli's 15th century work.
