So pleased to discover this record of the making of these artworks, by the immensely talented artists Dai and Jenny Vaughan. They researched and studied for years to work out how to duplicate as close as possible Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh's original techniques. I am so delighted the artists allowed this lost process and knowledge to be captured and shared in this way. My partner actually commissioned this piece along with many others and they are absolutely stunning, and deserve a much wider audience than our living room! Please can I make a plea for Damien to properly optimise this listing so that it rises much higher inn the search. This is done by adding as many key words as you can fit into both the title and description of the video (Gesso Panels, Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh, Charles Rennie Macintosh, Dai and Jenny Vaughan, The Red Rose and White Rose, Gesso Panels, Arts and Crafts, Rabbit clue, Traditional Gesso technique, etc, etc).
Wow I’ve been looking for something like this for ages : What skill the finished piece was evidently how Margaret created her work ; I certainly will have a go to learn some skills ; thanks for posting
Fascinating and completely inspiring, as well as being a pleasing tribute to Margaret Macdonald's singular style. An under-recognized genius, without a doubt.
Absolutely gorgeous and inspiring! I was trying to figure out how this was done and about to break out my icing bag to try piping but thought i would just do a bit of research first and thrilled to have found your video. Looks like me idea was on track! What an amazing job you did. Absolutely fascinating to watch your process. Thank you so much for posting this.
