I have often thought of doing this technique, although I didn't know it existed as an artform with it's own history.
In the end I have never done more than some experiments with it.
but from what you are saying about how frustrating it is, I must revisit.
I specialise in frustrating painting and art making techniques.

glad to have run across you by seeing your comment on somebodies blog.
will have you on the radar too
Yes, this technique has been around for a long time. Its also known for the paintings lasting a long time... unless you break them of course ;-)
Hahaha... specializing in frustrating painting and art making techniques could be something I said too. So, we are brothers in spirit! Your post are very interesting as well and of course I'm radaring you back ;-)
