QUESTION:

Do you use oil or watercolors to enhance your portraits? It looks like oil. What kind of paper would you use if you want to digitalize the portrait first then enhance it with another medium?

-- Nancy

MR. NOCON'S ANSWER:

Dear Nancy:

I do not use any further enhancement to my prints other than a varnish to protect it. The reason it looks like oil, or watercolour, or pastel, is because I make it look like art media. It seems to work.

I use a heavy weight watercolour paper made for digital work. It is Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308 gsm. Check with FREESTYLE for availability.

I hope this answers your query.
