[@Sherlock2022]

I really like this one. Will you be posting any more line and wash paintings? Thanks.

[@michelekubiniec404]

I love your work, Joanne. This will be fun to try. When working with charcoal, do you use any product to protect the painting afterwards?

[@JBOONTOM]

No nothing I just frame under glass but you could apply a fixative if you like 😊

[@scarlettHischild]

May I ask what was in the blue spray bottle? Was it just water? Or something else?

[@JBOONTOM]

Just water Scarlet 💧

[@scarlettHischild]

@@JBOONTOM oh thank you. It had such a textural impact I was shocked just the water alone did that effect on your sky. 🌌 stunning. 🤩

[@lesleyevangelides5935]

Would one seal this with a watercolour varnish spray before framing in view of the charcoal?

[@JBOONTOM]

Hi Lesley you could fix with a spray but I choose not to as not had a problem once the painting is behind glass 😊
