Just as a...Hi Matthew, Beautiful, beautiful work... Just as an FYI, My sister Sharon Knettell is a fine artist, master in oils and other mediums, an ex teacher at RISD in RI, as well as a nationally known illustrator and portrait artist. She has been painting for over 40 plus years. She is also a master of working with mediums too. She has done tons of research into the formulas of masters. She might be able to help you will all sorts of issues like varnish. Check out her website: www.sharonknettell.com. I believe her email address is on her website. She would love a shout from another artist.<br /><br />Best,<br />Another fellow Twitterer<br />@NancyKnettell<br />email: nknettell@whynotmakemillions.comNancy Knettellhttp://www.whynotmakemillions.comnoreply@blogger.com
