A short video on the making of this image
A single red gladiola stalk against a gilded background — how totally elegant. Photographed from behind so the light green stalk pulls the viewer in as a vertical design element. Yes, this corm was purchased from Lowe's, years ago — grown by me in New Mexico. It reflects the golden light from the luminous gilding. This stunning piece will bring a radiant light to any wall — these gilded vellums love light bouncing around a room.
Luminous Red Gladiola is printed in archival pigment ink on vellum, then gilded on the reverse with Dutch gold leaf through a series of steps in my Rio Rancho, New Mexico studio. The gold behind the image gives the print a glow that shifts with the light in the room. There's a ton of gilding on this print.
