Derek Hood
Many years of
experience in the binderies of Shepherds, Sangorski
& Sutcliffe and Bayntun-Riviere have enhanced
Derek's knowledge and helped him produce the high level of
craftsmanship found in his award winning bindings (derekhoodbookbinding.com).
He is accomplished in all aspects of the craft and particularly
in the art of solid edge-gilding.
The Course
Derek will take you through the processes involved in preparing and gilding book edges with gold leaf, including gilding in the round. Student's are welcome to bring their own books to practice on but practice books will be available along with all the necessary tools and materials.
