I have have acquired these as instructed as well as stones and am now set up to work. The problem I have encountered is that, although it looks smooth, the surface of the stone is just a gravelly enough to trip up the tip of the pen nib so that I suddenly stop or bump over and mess up the ink and the line I'm drawing. Is overcoming this stubbiness of the pen on the surface of the stone part of the skill you develop? Do you ever prime the stone before you draw on it? And if so, how do you do that? I was thinking of putting a Mod Podge or acrylic matte coat on the stone. Would this ruin the feel or the look of authenticity of the stone? I would so appreciate your advice with this problem.<br />Thank you so much for any help you might give.<br />Randy2randycabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14629640193825046505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2315257646233784836.post-50536112498847720892016-06-14T13:38:49.079+12:002016-06-14T13:38:49.079+12:00Love love love your book Kathryn and I'm enjoy...Love love love your book Kathryn and I'm enjoying reading it very much!!!!! <br />Thank YOU :) :) :) MagaMerlinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08402254362520365411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2315257646233784836.post-2258532069983079352016-06-14T13:37:30.389+12:002016-06-14T13:37:30.389+12:00Thank you very much George!
