Have you tried matte impasto gel diluted with a bit of boiled water as adhesive? I find that I can stick stuff down and brush over it, then dry under pressure between layers of freezer wrap to stop it sticking to anything. Doesn't seem to stick to stuff later (with luck) - certainly doesn't feel sticky once dry like some mediums do.anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14133438395480518442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056586873219716348.post-86427438897787531042016-05-20T19:34:41.655-07:002016-05-20T19:34:41.655-07:00This looks lovely Irene!

I also enjoyed looking at the teabag girls blog and also at the popup gallery. You do great work whether it is painting or collaging. As for my portrait. I tried to do a self portrait several years ago and it ended up with 1/2 looking like my sister and 1/2 looking like me. I have tried to fix the eyes, the mouth, and other things. It is more in proportion than it was but it still looks like both of us!Fayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06006293795541608715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056586873219716348.post-32069794640236442262016-05-20T12:06:52.159-07:002016-05-20T12:06:52.159-07:00Oh, I would love to hold your journal. :-)
