Kate P. (aka Sparkle Tart)
Australia
I am a collage - a collection and reflection of every idea I've ever found inspiring, every technique I've ever seen and all the beauty I see in the world. Within me and my work, these things are merged, reflected and somehow become the unique being that is me and the unique form that is my art! I see the world differently to many, I am constantly amazed by the beauty around me. I like to express myself through art - I stamp, I journal, I colour and I create. I love my life and the part that art plays in it. I enjoy learning new things and teaching others new things - I love sharing the WOW moment.
Interests: gardening, card making, cooking, copics, art journaling, mixed media and growing orchids all keep me busy.

Hi Sharon - I've used workable fixative and (waterbased) gloss spray over this with no problems - might be some unwanted reaction between the urethane and the paint. If you have these try a test on a scrap piece before spraying (I've ruined one or 2 things with a finishing spray myself!) I've also heard good things about Kamar varnish from Golden - might be worth a try?
