How to care for your new gouache painting.
• Gouache paint is a little bit like ink and a little bit like chalk; meaning  it will smudge if rubbed and run if wet.
• Protect the surface of your painting from such catastrophes by framing your artwork.
• Frame makers are artists in their own right  and can be costly, but framing a painting will make it last a lifetime rather than a short time exposed to mess of life.
• Box frames where the glass does not make contact with the face of the painting are best. These are sometimes used to frame photos in the same way; check out craft stores for affordable framing options.
