Four winter cards
Watercolour
©2012 Charlene Brown
When I painted folding cards like this a couple of weeks
ago, I taped them flat on the board – and when I removed the tape, a bit of one of the paintings ripped off.
So this time I folded the cards before taping them down, two
of them with just the back of the card taped (and protected) and two with the
whole thing taped, as shown in the picture on the right.
As you might guess from
this picture, The top ones were more difficult to work on, with the paint
finding its way over the flapping edges of the paper. Besides that, I prefer the results of the
bottom ones – I like the paintings to have a white border. So from now on, I’ll
be painting with tape all round the folded card.
