Today will find me in the garden and in the studio. 
Besides  catching up with the weeds, I'll be preparing a few items for gilding.  If all goes well, I'll take a few photos along the way, so you can see  exactly what rabbit skin glue and gesso are (the steps before gold leaf  is applied). 
Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there! 
And Happy Birthday to my sister, Bonnie!
