Real Men Wax

Not much artwork this week but I did spend yesterday applying wax to some unframeable paintings. I got the idea from a Liz Chaderton video earlier in the week. She uses something called Dorland’s wax medium, just spreading it thinly over watercolours with her hands, leaving it a day to dry and then shining it up with a cloth. I thought I’d give it a go on the eleven works you see here, even though some of them have already been sorted with some sort of fixative.

The results are in the photo. Everything looks fine.

Here is a link to the wax medium on Amazon. As an Amazon Associate, I earn commission from qualifying purchases but this costs absolutely nothing extra to you.
