I use workable so that I can continue to work on the painting. I don't use a final fixative.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17239336384191511625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14672405.post-38430960466695963422016-08-15T19:32:44.206-04:002016-08-15T19:32:44.206-04:00Thank you Karen very much !

Then there is this another problem :)) I live in Poland and we have plenty of brands of fixatives but they seem all be the same ... you call yours "working fixative" like it were proper for using in the middle of painting, going on after applying ...... Are there different fixatives for the process and for the finish ? I think I rememeber you saying you're not using fixative for finish (change of colour or something), right ? margothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11682792361971676420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14672405.post-82374651763326531902016-08-15T19:12:34.659-04:002016-08-15T19:12:34.659-04:00Thank you Margot!

I was wondering if you've ever tackled the problem of using too many layers of pastels (or pressing too hard) and loosing the tooth of paper ? What to do - is the battle lost then ? I might have not read everything on the blog .... I would appreciate some advice on the topic.margothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11682792361971676420noreply@blogger.com
