yea, well, i guess you could use a bit of cement to add onto a canvas, gives it a bit of texture, fuckin heavy but!! And why not go further and wrap some masking tape round it! I bet you could sell it for atleast $5.00- hey, anythings art these days....even cement

tracing paper rules! and acitate! makes great results , transparencies and layers and stuff.
also, i like putting lace on collages , painting it over, makes interesting textures.
Cement was by far the most "radical" material mentioned here though

I like this topic, arty

i don't really get into odd materials per se, although ya never know. i love colored pencils, always have. i also love using them on photographs, altho i haven't messed about like that in a long time. i also love working in my garden, creating some natural art.....love to shape the land with rocks and such. i also love collage, just cutting paper...and layering......ooooooooo.

Me too VV

Save the tape do not waste the reusable. Everything has a purpose in life. Carbon paper easy to remake the same masterpiece also great animation tool.

Tape is great especially the masking tape which can be pulled back after an intensive layer of media to expose a thin sharp line. Some structure in the disorder it once was hiding under. Also great is you just want to cover paper with acrylics and charcoal all in one let the acrylic dry and stroke with the chalk repeat and rinse. Dilute white acrylic to create transparency let it dry and you can draw over it again. Great for smearing...for the sake of god do not rub your work take fresh earth and drag it across the page.

e-mail me luv I need a friend. Life is quirky and I am quirky and I don't know how to manage myself let alone the responsibility of being someone considered a responsible person...but I am alone. The world is great burden and as an artist I feel responsible for it all.

I am what I am. I feel I scared off a great friend.

What materiels do you Love ?
