I try to put myself on the other side of the table as it were and understand what people are trying to accomplish.<BR/><BR/>Juicy is a good word for it Teresa! Its even juicier now. :) Thanks for the tip about trying to iron out the crease. I'll see what happens. <BR/><BR/>Something like ironing our hair way back in the day. No, you're too young to remember that, but I do remember doing it to a friend's hair. So it should work on the paper!Jeanette Jobsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08935974758134419990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-27077877032100182602008-05-29T17:46:00.000-02:302008-05-29T17:46:00.000-02:30Oooh Jeanette, you are at the 'juicy' stage - when...Oooh Jeanette, you are at the 'juicy' stage - when you snapped that last picture of your vulture wip. I find it a yummy, delicious stage when those first layers of colour start coming together and you can sense depth. He is a mighty fine vulture. <BR/><BR/>Can the dent be ironed out? I have had success using an iron (obviously at a low temp., perhaps with a cloth between the iron and the paper. This can't cure a really bad crease but it might be worth a try).<BR/><BR/>Hey, with regards to the teaching thing...I agree with Rose. You communicate your process very well. Add to that, you care if your students learn and you seek to encourage. I believe that is all it takes...and if you can 'act' when necessary, all the better! :-)Teresa Mallenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17978596700598817430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-56677312157623416932008-05-28T23:36:00.000-02:302008-05-28T23:36:00.000-02:30Jeanette,I had to laugh about the paper - I have d...Jeanette,<BR/><BR/>I had to laugh about the paper - I have done that sort of thing so many times. I wish you the best in transferring it! <BR/><BR/>You, my friend, are what they call a "natural" - a natural teacher, that's why people subscribe to your blog, that and the fact that your artwork is entrancing! You have nothing to worry about on either front.Rose Weltyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00313411909909580181noreply@blogger.com
