Can you believe it... almost 70 degrees in colorado?.. anyway, back to the real reason for this post. A very talented artist located in Denver named David Castle sent me information on preserving watercolor works. He works on watercolor paper and then preserves it, and places it on gallery wrapped canvas... making it a whole piece, rather then framing it. I share the same belief that it brings the viewer closer to the work...

anywho... linked is his process on how he does it in case you ever wanted to try it, or was wondering.. David, thanks for the note and I appriciate the help.. you can view his blog by clicking on his link to the left, or clicking on the links below. http://davidcastleart.wordpress.com/2007/03/06/how-i-seal-my-watercolors-on-paper/ . or http://davidcastleart.wordpress.com/2007/07/06/mounting-and-sealing-my-watercolors-on-canvas-varnish-update/
