Hi Louise. Thanks for your very informative videos and showing your wonderful work 😊🥀 I like to do mixed media art and use a lot of collage. But unfortunately I am getting sick from using acrylic mediums as glue. So I wonder if I can use wall paper paste (methyl cellulose) instead for paper collage? I am a little worried about it yellowing over time. Do you know about this? Also what about fungi if there is not preservatives in the cellulose glue? And lastly can you varnish on top of the collage made with cellulose glue? Your help with these questions will be much appreciated 😊 Nina
@LouiseJannettaАй бұрын
Hi Nina Glad you like the videos, and many thanks for watching X. Methycellulose glue is used as archival glue by bookbinders. It won't go mouldy as long as it is kept dry. You can use the acrylic varnishes on top of the cellulose. I will also use the branded acrylic mediums as they will be archival. 😀 Good luck with it all XX

I use wax. I either grate from a wax block or use pellets and an iron to melt onto paper. It makes lovely translucent, velum like paper.

Great tip! Very helpful. And the results must be lovely and have a great feel to them. I have also tried the acrylic gloss medium.

Interesting video. Am I right in thinking that wheat paste is a good choice for holey paper or thready paper etc, so as to get a colour absorbant surface that isn't stiff or brittle? I'm finding cellulose paste darned hard to get hold of, (unless I could substitute wallpaper paste???) however I've managed to get some methyl cellulose, although not cheap. I'd like to try the wheat paste unless it produces a brittle result. So I'll hope to hear from you.
@LouiseJannetta2 ай бұрын
Hi again Fran. Wheat paste is also a good glue for this process when you want the papers to remain absorbent and to take pigment well. The plastic-based glues that are not soluble once dry will, of course, take acrylics well, but it is painting onto a sealed surface, and so doesn't respond to the papers and threads, the materials themselves so well.😀
@LouiseJannetta2 ай бұрын
And hi again - I am sorry if I didn't clarify that by cellulose glue, I mean Methyl Cellulose glue. I purchased it from a bookbinder supplier in Britain. I think craft suppliers also sell it. Wallpaper paste is also suitable for this process, and I am sure its archival properties are suitable. Still, it is not made for artwork, so there is very little written about the chemicals added, and I couldn't be sure of wallpaper paste's archival qualities. But for work that is more experimental and trying out a process its an excellent alternative.😀 I hope all this helps. Many thanks for watching my channel, and best of luck with all your creative endeavours. All the very best Louise
