I was delighted to be asked to teach a two day Gilded Illustration Masterclass at The Wallace Collection, aligned with their beautiful exhibition, Ranjit Singh: Sikh, Warrior, King.I'm showcasing a few of my own gilded illustrations here, created as examples for the class. They're inspired by the intricate metalwork on display in the exhibition, as well as the wider collection at the museum.
