		<description>Some artists go crazy with these mediums and produce lovely work.  However, I am not able to.  I am thinking about using a mache on my next canvas.  Will take a photo and post my happy experience in my blog!!</description>

		<description>i felt the same way about the &#039;gimmicky&#039; feel of mediums. but my art instructor uses them all the time in his works, and the results are quite breathtaking.  instead of being about the medium, it enhances the piece with texture and depth and character.  i went out and bought some crackle paste too and am playing with it.  i also tried some gel with glass beads (by golden) on a piece and was so amazed with the results.  now i&#039;m looking everywhere (hence how i found your post) to see other examples of how people have used mediums in their work.  i hope you have fun with it.</description>

		<description>Creating art is very satisfying and I wish you luck with your endeavours.  It does take several years to find your own &quot;mark&quot; but once you do, you will discover a whole new world.</description>
