painting related question
Sep. 26th, 2003 03:06 pmPainting-related question to those of you that are both artsy as well as crafty..
I've been wanting to have a go at montage painting (is that what it's called? I'm not sure if there's a correct term) -- in which the canvas would be painted on as well as collaged on (ie: newspaper clippings). Now my question is this -- will the collaged items stick on because of the paint that is underneath/overlayed on it? Or is it best to use glue (and what kind, then -- would mod podge be okay?) the collaged pieces on and then paint over them?
And also -- would sealant be best on canvas paintings such as these? Or should I leave them as finished without it..
