Thank Goodness I used Acrylics! (by sarah)
I was painting last night just some more alien landscapes, I had dry pictures on the other half of the table with books over the edges - to try and make them flat (the edges curl up and I've found if you leave them long enough with wieght on the edges they straighten up a bit), when I nocked the water pot over 🙁 If the dry pictures had been water colours they would have been ruined!!!! But fortunatly I discoved last year - acrylics!
I love acrylics 🙂 You can make them look like oils or water colours or poster paint! But they dry water proof! The are easy to mix into new colours and come in a huge range anyway - plus you can get many different textures 🙂
Last year for our anniversary I painted Al a picture and he got me a book on acrylics 🙂
At some point I will set an on line gallery up but I just have to much to do right now - but I'll let you all know!

Yup, my Daddy and Granny showed me acrylics when I was a little babby, and I've never looked back since.
