Anger, Wetness, Superglue.
Alright, this is starting to piss me off.

I have an image I neeeed to get done and it's not bloody drying. I think I mixed in oils with the acrylic I was using, errr...

I really want to scan this peice and finish it off. Bugger it, I'll risk it going all smeary like on the scanner. I mean, that seems to be what some people think of my art anyway. Heh.

Could be worse. Could have SUPERGLUED MY FUCKING EYES TOGETHER, like an elderly Thai monk did.

Luckily, Buddha is a top bloke, and seems to be giving him his sight back.

The kicker:

"Another monk suggested he use thinners to get rid of the glue. But that only caused a searing pain, he said. "

Hope you don't mind my asking you Ben, but what kind of paper do you use? Blue Line? I've been trying to find a paper that holds acrylic well (I water down my paints a bit) and doesn't buckle as much.
I like illustration board, but that can be difficult for me to scan in.

Ouch!! Silly bastard! (dya reckon I'll be damned for blaspheming at a religious deity-type-person?)

My friend superglued her fingers to her trainers... I suppose these things can happen... ;)

I thought monks were supposed to be smart and enlightened?

Oh well.
