KrylonPastel Premium Fine Art Fixatif, 11 oz.

Giid product for artists

I been using this stuff for the past few weeks now and so far its performing better then the regular krylon workable fixative.With the krylon workable fixative, each time i used it i kept either getting a dusty gray layer on top that would just wipe off and the drawing would not be fixed to the paper which took way too many coats to do or too much fixative would end up the paper not allowing me to draw on top of it anymore.The gallery series fixative doesn't have either of those problems for me. Takes very little layers to fix it to the paper and that when using thin/light coats.Though i would say, the workable part of this, you should be careful because if you spray too much it will turn into a final fixative. You probably wont get many more drawing layers down with this also unlike a regular workable fixative. i would say maybe two or three layers of drawing. If you need a lot of workable layers then you may want to play it safe and use a plain workable fixative.the directions say:for a workable fixative, apply VERY light coats for a workable protectionfor a final fixative, apply just a several light coats for a final protections

I've started dibblin and dabbling with drawing portraits using graphite and charcoal. It got a little messy so I did some research on what I could use to prevent smudging....I tried this stuff. I sprayed 4 coats. I loved the results and so did my sister (the portrait was for her)

The spray definitely works. No smell, no mess!cjr

I got this because the product and the reviews said it did not dissolve the whites and lights, and they did not lie. It’s great for isolating colors when trying to avoid “mud,” and it helps me get a little more tooth when I need it.
