Description

Created in the first lockdown of 2020. An ode to freedom, fresh air and friends.

‘Long Time No Sea’ is a beautiful and unique gold leaf sign to hang on your wall. Each piece is a one-off, made by hand, using traditional sign-painting techniques and the impressive, heritage craft of reverse glass gilding. Pick a frame to suit your personal aesthetic (black or gold).

Pop this in a place where the sun shines and be endlessly surprised by the stunning reflections the gold creates.

Photos are illustrative.

Devon

I am a sign painter, gilder and artist based in Devon.

I undertook an apprenticeship with an experienced sign painter at the start of 2020 and immediately fell in love with gold leaf. A self-taught gilder with a background in fine art, I enjoy the playfulness of unexpected words juxtaposed with a decorative and traditional craft.

My favourite pieces include colour, some excellent word choices and considered detailing.
