Do you have any advice on how to deal with paper warping?
The paper getting sobby and uneven often quickly brings a painting session to an end :)
And yet in tutorial videos I often see people paint a whole background section in one go (even as much as half the page) without any issues. Do they glue the sheet down to a board?

- geokon 4y agoOh very clever! Less of a mess than tape. Thanks for the idea :)
