I tried the watercolours on the heavy duty tracing paper ages ago, and was going beautifully until I added too much water and it did buckle like a leaf LOL. The watercolours sit on top of the drafting film and take ages to dry but the film doesn't buckle at all. The drafting film isn't so great for washes with watered down acrylics, but otherwise the acrylics work really well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840364245091965136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889343485717851309.post-22831692043149468182010-05-16T00:45:03.649-07:002010-05-16T00:45:03.649-07:00Karen, I really enjoy your fantasy pieces - it all...Karen, I really enjoy your fantasy pieces - it allows so much more of YOU into the work.<br /><br />Acrylics on film - wow, doesn't it buckle at all? I think I tried watercolour/calligraphy on film ages ago, and it curled up like a dead leaf. Although it may have been tracing film, thinner than drafting film.<br /><br />Great stuff!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />CindyArtoholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03424626782787625419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889343485717851309.post-8619522262950430282010-05-15T15:28:59.223-07:002010-05-15T15:28:59.223-07:00LOL Deb - I think it is wonderful that we can draw...LOL Deb - I think it is wonderful that we can draw inspiration from each other and thank you for the hint about exacto.<br />Lovely to hear from you Mari :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840364245091965136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889343485717851309.post-66819317245932477112010-05-15T06:27:07.805-07:002010-05-15T06:27:07.805-07:00I like very much

What I love too about the acrylics on film, is if you need to rework an area, or if you just want to change a highlight, you can use an exacto to easily lift the paint from the surface...not as easy to do with the pencils on drafting film. Plus, I think you can get much higher contrast with the acrylics than with watercolor or pencils on this nonabsorbent surface. Thank YOU for the inspiration Karen!Debra Keircehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12391213568280558242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889343485717851309.post-88605061374995935542010-05-15T00:16:00.982-07:002010-05-15T00:16:00.982-07:00Thank you Vic - I searched your other blog, but I ...Thank you Vic - I searched your other blog, but I couldn't find any images that had your work with acrylics - I would love to see what you are doing :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840364245091965136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889343485717851309.post-80116685762929948312010-05-14T23:27:46.002-07:002010-05-14T23:27:46.002-07:00Awww this is so sweet Karen, and you have taken to...Awww this is so sweet Karen, and you have taken to Acylics very well.....strange that you are starting out with it first on Drafting Film and me on Stone/Slate lol....could not be more different.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889343485717851309.post-33319795207054346412010-05-14T14:20:08.394-07:002010-05-14T14:20:08.394-07:00That's just why I enjoy doing them too Sherry ...That's just why I enjoy doing them too Sherry - thank you ☺Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840364245091965136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889343485717851309.post-50420788459455894562010-05-14T03:31:15.248-07:002010-05-14T03:31:15.248-07:00This is just so beautiful.
