In 2000 I had 4 boxes
of watercolors for a show in New Orleans refused by UPS because they were
framed with glass and not double boxed. Even though I had packed the livin'
bejesus out of them to insure safe transport. I gave the problem some
serious consideration, sent the work Fedex Ground, and decided that just
maybe I'd had enough of works on paper, with all the framing costs and
inherent shipping difficulties. At that point, I started painting on wood
in acrylics ands haven't looked back. For the most part, the new paintings
are finished with crackle varnish, a final coat of picture varnish, the
edges are painted and they are good to go. No fuss, no muss, no glass. |
