Supra Suprano High How Can One Fix Pastel Painting |
|
t do we mean by fixing? Basically it is using different methods to try and preserve your paintings.
As to why we fix it is a personal thing. Some people are of the reasoning that maybe their colours may not appear fresh. Therefore not all artists like to fix. Artists differ on this subject with some only fixing at the end, others just fixing a certain segment as the work progresses.
Take a sheet of tissue paper or cellophane would do equally well. To proceed you need something hard and flat to place your art on. Cover it with your paper,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], then apply some pressure to this. This will ensure loose speckles of pastel will go into the paper's grain. However, should you exert too much pressure, your texture could be changing. Failing this, if you do not like this method, you can simply spray your work.
It is quite easy to fall into the trap of spraying your painting too much. Therefore, with this in mind, it is a good method to spray from behind. Really the fix penetrates through the paper and being damp it remains in place,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], keeping your surface safe. This seems to be a sensible way of doing it as you are not left with a skin on top of your loose pigments.
Other people use Diffusers, not so easy, as they tend to clog up. After use you can unclog them with a piece of wire, which in turn leaves them clean for the next artwork. Whoever said fixing is easy? Stand a good distance away, at least two feet,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and start spraying from the outside in.
You need to aim for a fine spray. This being so, you need to work slowly, with a steady arm to and fro, backwards and forwards, never stopping and covering the edges well. Disasters occur if you stop as the spray will stick, then start dripping down and leave dark ugly patches.
Next step, oh dear, you want to keep your colours fresh and fix it. How do I do this? You need to do this as you work,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but before you lay your last colour paint layer or do any highlighting. This then should still stay fresh.
This is a good way to go about it as you do not have colour mixing problems with ones applied earlier and not be depressed by your colours looking dull. When this happens you think all that work ruined otherwise.
All I can advice is, do not fix the final layer of colour if you want nice fresh colour. Fixing can be a difficult process, so I can only wish you the best of luck with it!
