Fail.

One thing that I have discovered does not work, during my experimentation with paper types, is using greaseproof paper. Now I know, the clue essentially should be in the name of the paper itself, but I thought I'd try it, because you know, it's an experiment.

Anyhow, I taked some up, set the paint going and thought, that looks cool, because it wasn't so much drying on the paper as just sliding down it. But eventually it dried, and I took it down, laid it on the floor and stuff.

When I went to pick it up to put it in my bag for the crit, all the paint just like...popped free of the paper. It was dried to itself in long strips, which are fragile, but stay together if you're careful. And I was just like, oh. Maybe not then.
