You Asked – Displaying a Pastel Painting
Today’s question comes from Marie and she writes:
“I have recently been experimenting with oil pastels and have achieved some good results. Do the pastels ever completely dry and how are they to be displayed? I see there is a fixative for them… must they be shown under glass? I’d like to use them in some of my mixed media paintings and just seal them.”
