I work a lot with Caran D’Ache water soluble crayons, but don’t love that the colors are a bit chalky and very susceptible to damage. So I tried coating this with acrylic varnish, and it seems to work beautifully to address both issues. Will be playing with this for a bit, I suspect!
Really nice!!! Thanks for the idea–I also love the Caran D’Ache. I like the texture in your piece –that subtle layering of maybe dots or drips?
Thanks! Yes, before I sealed it with acrylic, I spattered some water and blotted it for texture.
