I will try using as the manufacturer suggests as an underpainting for regular oils too.Nancy L.

Its cool looking and I think you'll really enjoy the easel after the first couple of oil smears that will be left behind after your first couple of paintings *wink, I guess by then we feel it's broke in, huh?<br /><br />Since you didn't say, I'm going to show my lack of knowledge and ask what is Fast Matte? ... you said 'paint', so is it oils?, or is it pastel? I do find with the smaller works that I always want to add more detail ... you'd think it would be just the opposite.Nancy Van Blaricomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17030893675129815727noreply@blogger.com
