tutorial on nvr-dull
first cut out the pics you want and mount to backing. For these samples I randomly ripped out pages from a home decorators catalog. (picture 1)
the taking elmers regular old school glue (trust me on this tried 4 different glues and had the best results with this) made squiggle lines, marks etc anywhere you want the color to stay (picture 2) LET THE GLUE DRY COMPLETELY

Nvr-Dull part 2
take our nvr-dull and tear off a chunk. I did this outside. Rub all over your image and the color not covered with glue will come off. I then rubbed each piece with a piece of paper towel or rag to get off excess polish (picture 3) I have been told that citra-solve also works but I can't verify it.
Readd color. The directions in the book say use color pastels--I was not satisfied with the color doing it this way so I used Cats Eyes Color box chalk. I dabbed them directly on to the paper and buffed a bit with paper towel. Backgrounds have been made. (picture 4)
hope this helps. any questions feel free to pm me.

The "When I Look at You" ATC is incredibly freaky and amazing! Awesome job!
Re: Bernie Berlin magazine with gesso/ nvr-dull

Christy,
Thanks so much for the great illustrations. Your backgrounds are terrific, and I really love the variety of things you did with them.

Going to bump this.
See if any body wants to take a stab at this technique.

OK, when I get home, I will do something with the backgrounds that I did weeks ago.
Wish I could find those people I gesso-ed weeks ago now that their time has come.

While driving home from my Mom's house on Wednesday, I heard a song on the radio in which there is one phrase I really like. I got the brilliant :idea: idea to use all the tags I have been making to write down and remember some of these lyrics of songs, quotes, etc, that we like and collect but seldom do anything with them. I will make a box or little book with pockets to keep them in.
So I used two of my first nevr dull tags to do these. Can you name the songs? No fair, googling them!
