I did not do a flood coat on this piece after markers were added. I used artist grade which are stable and won't come off if touched or wiped in cleaning. That said, I other works such as Crystal Wave - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z56qf8yg0qrOf6M.html I did finish with a flood coat. Your artistic choice!

What's the reason you decided on the board vs a canvas?

@MoonkusserArt 3 жыл бұрын

Could only do wood stained sides with a wooden artist panel. Geode resin artwork can end up being heavy from all the product and cause sag on a canvas.

@suras8984 2 жыл бұрын

How come you sanded it after the polyurethane and not before? Sorry this is all new to me.

@MoonkusserArt 2 жыл бұрын

The moisture from putting the coat of polyurethane on makes the wood fibers swell as the wood absorbs it. When the first coat dries it is slightly rough. Sanding, cleaning, and applying another coat leaves a smooth and shiny finish. No need to apologize, I am always happy to answer questions. 😁
