Pigment prints on translucent vellum gilded with 24kt gold,silver,platinum or copper leaf.

"Sheldon Ruins" was awarded the Judith Cantor Memorial Medal of Honor Award from the National Association of Women Artists in New York. This is a color infrared print on vellum gilded with 24kt gold leaf.
Sheldon Ruins is the ruins of a Prince Williams Parish Church in South Carolina originally built in the mid-1700’s. General Sherman burned it down in the Revolutionary War in 1865. This image was created by using a converted digital infrared camera with a filter of 590 nm giving some red and blue color along with the infrared wavelengths of light displayed. I chose to gild this with 24kt gold leaf to create the blue/green of the sky and to accentuate the antiquity and beauty of this ruin not typically seen in the United States.
