TIP ON STORING PAINTINGS



In Celeste Bergin's post yesterday she asked how other artists stored their paintings. For my small paintings I store them in a plastic dish rack. They are also placed there while they dry. The racks are inexpensive and can be found easily. They take up little space which is a definite advantage.

  1. Really great tip. Thanks Linda! I have mine leaning against any and every surface I can find. This is much more organized and probably much safer as well.

  9. Oh my, this is a great tip! Thanks Linda. I am about to have a bunch of panels cut to take to a workshop I am doing this summer. This could be a perfect solution for storing and transporting them. I want to branch off of my acrylics and take my new oils, but I had no idea how I would get them home once they were covered in wet paint. Thanks again!
