These were painted in 2005. They had been in storage until 2009. When we moved I decided to hang them in the house, and they have been exposed to sunlight during that time, but haven't faded noticeably. I varnished them today with one coat of permanent Liquitex Gloss Varish. The varnish retains a wet look after drying, which causes the paint to look as saturated as it did when first applied.

This painting was an experiment with acrylic, watercolor pencils, and ink on wood. I sprayed the final painting with a fixative to prevent the ink from bleeding, and then I applied a layer of poly resin. The resin gives the painting a thick glass like coating. I really like the effect.
