I quite like its softness, but ...Awww... poor you. I quite like its softness, but I can see that you would be pretty fed up about this! I once spent a lot of time printing Thomas the Tank Engine pictures, cutting them out with care, then using them to embellish a play-table, on which I had drawn railway tracks with a marker pen. Once I had finished, I started to paint on some varnish... which dissolved the marker and smudged it everywhere, ruining my table. <br />So I know just how you felt! <br />The only comfort could be that you didn't try this on a big piece, that had taken you days and days of work... <br />Show us the re-done version when you finish?

Though perhaps it could be the varnish too. Trial and error I suppose sadly. I am going to get some gel medium which people keep mentioning but I don't know how it works on paintings. I know it works for mixed media art journaling. Good Luck with the next one.
