I did these great pieces early on in my collage career, and I used a lot of tissue, they faded a LOT and I ended up tinting those areas the faded with acrylic on top. it salvaged them, but I learned my lesson! I buy hand-made and art papers from local paper makers and online. if you look on the right hand column of my blog, you will see a link for the paper place I buy from. <BR/><BR/>I am happy to be your idol! Thanks for the compliments. I had no idea I could be a collage idol.
