A few beginner mistakes I made were, using a small hard rubber roller that left marks on my painting, getting the acrylic medium on the front of the painting, and having the acrylic medium start drying, before I placed the painting on it. Also, rubbing to vigorously when applying the wax, and smearing some pencil marks. My solutions are... Got a wider roller made for the purpose, make sure you have enough wet paper towels to wipe up any/all stray glue, and spray mist the acrylic medium, if it is drying to fast. I like your idea of using soft cloth to apply the wax. Thanks for the wonderful video.

Sometimes I use a paintbrush too - nothing wrong with that! Just put a little soap and water on the bristles so the masking fluid doesn’t stick to it.

Is it okay to use Dorland's wax on acrylic Ben Moore paint? I have some old cigar boxes. I put my watercolor paintings on the lids and sealed them with Dorland's wax. I painted the boxes with Ben Moore acrylic paint and sealed them with Dorland's wax. A month later, they still have a waxy feel to them. Anything I can do so it will feel more dry to the touch?

I’m not sure what the problem could be. Maybe the wax is on too thick?

My, I learned so much from you today. Now I see going slow and using a small brush works much better. I like the way you divided the jar into sections , I think that will help too. It amazes me that watercolor can look so realistic. Thank you for this very helpful tutorial. This is my first time to see you paint, now I'm a big fan!

Thank you for this video, I know its 2 years ago but I recently bought some ruling pens also and I was wondering if rinsing them off with water would damage them? I know its a silly question but I find that when I am done with the pen, I rinse it off with water and dry it off completely with a dry wash cloth, is this ok?
@SusanMonroeArtАй бұрын
Not a silly question at all! It's fine to rinse them with water when you're done so long as your completely dry it (which you're doing.) I don't think they can rust, but I wouldn't want to take the chance!

The problem with your mounting method is that you haven't applied anything that retards support-induced discoloration (SID). Before you add the gesso, you should have applied a sealer to the wood. Gesso is porous and can allow the wood to bleed acids into your watercolor painting.
