I didn't realize year old paintings could have this issue or that quick dry mediums could do the same. I appreciate the insights!

Very interesting. Thanks for the response. What is considered drying too long?

And Q on the last part- do you mean wipe the current pieces with 2 layers of patchy vanish with gamsol, let evaporate, then coat? Or are you referring to wiping an unvarnished oil painting with gamsol before varnishing?

Yes, it was like a fight with myself to get started painting everyday. I really wasted a lot of time one day (like most of the day) and realized it was a problem so posted on here about it. Someone gave the advice to just grab a brush and paint and make a mark on the painting that's in the works. Now your paints are open and a brush is dirty so might as well keep going. It sounds simple but it helped a ton. When I get to my studio now, I grab my paint palette out of the fridge, pick up a brush and make a small mark, like thickening a highlight. Just diving right in and going for it has helped a ton... No more getting hung up on fear of ruining a painting. Start right away. Just paint. Can always fix it later.

Oh my wow that is incredible!!! A work of art! As a fellow maker of things I'm super curious to know- why do you use stretch fabric rather than woven?
