In this video I share my complete process for sealing, mounting, and varnishing my colored pencil paintings. I share why I choose to present several of my pieces without glass, what products I use to keep my pieces safe from environmental and light damage, and some safety tips for working with toxic fixatives.
This is an approach that I adopted from Ester Roi. You can read her process on her blog here:
