lighting gold signs (at shows)

Post by Felix Marcano »

Hi again eveyone. I just got a call from the marina about the upcoming boat show. (I really gotta hustle & make some samples!) Anyway, how should I light my glass pieces at the show? Should I light them at all?

Thanks, Felix
Work hard, party like a tourist!

Experiment. Just remember gold is basically the same as a mirror. It reflects what is in the background, so if you have a lot of black or dark areas in your booth being reflected, your burnished gold will be dark.
