I know you're joking but deodorant sprayed on paper can create an yellowish or off white foundation. Paper clip can be used as decoration like ear ring as well as a drawing tool to manipulate the tabasco sauce which is not unlike the blood drawings I have done before. the shade of common monopoly get out of jail free card is yellow or orange, which actually harmonizes with the redish/orange tabasco sauce. Rip that card apart, and it can potentially be used to add various little details. so what you just listed is theoretically possible and has all the necessary components to create a drawing.. Which is 1) tone manipulable medium (deodorant, Tabasco sauce / get out of jail free card) , 2) shape and detail manipulable aid for the medium. (paper clip, my finger) Not saying i'm actually gonna do it but it seems theoretically possible. | ||

![[image loading]](https://i.imgflip.com/ots19.jpg) Impressive as always. I never get tired of praising your work and you should never be weary of hearing it, for you are truly talented. I always love the finishing detail work you do, especially hair. Your hair looks so realistic... | ||

 Just to add, makeup "pens" are among the most expensive you can get and therefore bound to be a "boon" to any user. However, as with tabasco or blood, the drawings/pictures are indeed very subject to change if you ever want to conserve them the way they look when you have done them. "very similar to watercolor ink" that is one way to put it, my recolection is that while water painting is made to desolve "simply" and "straighforwardly" (meaning they are meant to be used/learned/mastered and you can then replicate methods that you can master out of it..? While the eyeliners or such behave more erratically, which is cartesian logic since they are meant to wistand water/persperation/etc on someone's face. While the eyeliner's "strong" and allows for "real time" specific uses (while you are drawing, for an immediate effect), the logic is inversed when it comes to making these manute details in lines/textures/etc in the drawings survive more than a few months (without proper care, a few years with proper care). Edit: (sorry for bigmoutharia and teacherboringalia) What I mainly used them for was to make "pre" drawings of reproductions on large canvases that were to be painted by students, so that the lines would both stand out as "deep" and still be discernable after first paints were done on them wear out completely chemically to leave only the paint "over it" (eventualy). This is all semantics and thank you for them. Thank you for fun thoughts / nostalgia these posts bring up. edit: fixxing typos is a karma curse | ||

I have no idea how long those mediums lasts on paper without degradation. | ||

 (I "taught" kids/people "artsy painting" after getting out of art school). Again, they are made to degrade and wither (so they can be washed more easily on skin). When I used it I used it as "structure" (redrawing several times over my lines so it would remain visualy "accessible" to the students after their "first pass" on them). We were making reproductions of large classic paintings in groups, some kids did the landscape, some did the characters etc, and the structure was their "law", so as to not change the drawing or ruin their "neighbours" efforts and have to work with them (needless to say I cheated and used a videoprojector to get quick and perfect "outlines" of those classics). In this setting, the third pass of acrylic/water killed them totaly (no trace remained while I had really "dosed" it. Of course there are loads of different eyeliners and such, and being poorly sponsored didn't make me steal, uhhh I mean buy the most recent/expensive kind, so maybe that was the "why" they withered away so "efficiently/quickly"!? As to how to best keep them alive, "varnish" seems to be the only solution coupled with no exessive light (where you "expose it") and even with it the details would still tend to blend in each other (after a few years, granted). I'm not quite sure the "fixative" aeorosol would not destroy it chemicaly straight away (got to test it :/ !). To round it up, the type of "canvas" you used evidently enters into it  , hessian/gunny/etc >"heavy" paper>thin paper.Of course, I can feel you are meticulously taking care of those drawings (in a folder), so my point might be moot, but then again you might be forced to conserve them in a damp or crazy hot place.. or want them over someone's mantlepiece, .. I don't know. I do hope they survive as they are. Good luck and thank you, again reminiscing on this long past episode (something like 17 years ago) has made my day. | ||
