IT KEEPS PULLING OFF!

So after much discussion with other artist, the creator of the globes and Golden Acrylic's tech help, I think what happened is a combination of no primer, the release agent on the globe, wall paper paste, magazine paper and water.....it just didn't jive together....SO, I spent Sunday pealing off the layers of paper.

AN ARTIST GLOBAL DISASTER!

So I was working on the globe and as I was tearing the paper it began to come completely off the globe. (YIKES!)

THIS IS WHERE I SANDED!

My nephews visit Camp Cool Globes and help me sand areas of the globe.

ENVELOPES, GOLD AND MAGENTA

More layers of color and mail. I tear and sand the mail layers and as paint is added I also wipe it off the surface. This gives the paper a variety of textures and therefore paint is absorbed differently.
