Greetings all,
Amidst my multi-use bag of plotters, printers, laminators and engravers, there still exists a hand-painter. Guess that is something that just never goes away, profitability notwithstanding. It's in my blood.
Back in the day there was really only one choice for tempera for showcard work ; Rich Art. Today it is difficult to tell what a high grade tempera that is finely ground is. Many have labels that look like they are from romper room. (safe for kids, etc.) Even Prang back in the 40's showed it was non-toxic right on the label, so that is of little concern. I am getting my chops back in hand-lettering and would like some /any suggestions for a finely ground tempera.
The online hand-lettering video [
] using Mike Stevens' script recommends using cell vinyl paint, but even that has been discontinued in the wake of the digital generation. Any suggestions most appreciated!
