Description
Something experimental I started several days ago. I used gouache paint, mixed with water to make it fluid so it could be blown and spit onto the paper by using straws. I did not use any brushes or other tools except for the rocks on wich the corals are. Unfortunately the paper got cemented to the drawing board it was attached to during the painting process. ([link] )The paint got between the board and the paper. As it completely dried I could not get the paper off the board. I needed to wet it again and used a big knife to seperate board and paper. And unfortunately... ..the paper got ripped and damaged during this process, no matter how carful I could have been.
So now you see a photo of the piece as it was still attached to the board. Next time doing such thing I will wrap plastic film all around the board.
