I managed to nearly ruin all of my super precise and neat painting. PANIC!
Having finished painting everything, over days of thin layers and painstakingly painting crisp lines, I decided to fix my piece together. I decided to use strong velcro, as it would give a strong hold but also be removable, allowing me to reposition the text if I needed to. (YEAH, RIGHT!)
When the piece was secured, I wasn't happy with the visible pieces of velcro, so I decided to remove it and trim the edges ensuring no joins could be seen.
Sadly I ripped/peeled the painting when removing one strip. There were layers and layers of acrylic paint so I will have to painstakingly patch it up and try to make sure it's invisible to the naked eye.
So frustrating when I was 99% finished. Oh well, we live and we learn!
Safe to say I will be securing the piece using a different method to ensure this doesn't happen again.
