About this lesson
Golden's technical team reports tests of varnishing over materials often used in mixed media paintings: oil and wax pastels, graphite, charcoal and soft pastel, coloured pencil, markers, watercolour and collaged papers or prints. Photos show the colour shifts and problems each one had, with a recommendation for each.
