@veronicalee, I'm so impressed by your dedication! It's fascinating to see how you've been hand-mounting your artwork for exhibitions, even with the initial "clumsy" (your words, not mine!) beginnings. Discovering the correct method via YouTube and embracing the "ask even when you know the way" proverb is a testament to your commitment to improvement and resourcefulness. This post beautifully illustrates the joy of learning and the satisfaction of mastering a new skill, especially when it combines art and practicality. I bet your newly mounted artwork looks fantastic! Have you noticed a significant difference in the final presentation with the new method? I'm eager to hear more about your experience! Keep creating and sharing!
