Mike,
Thanks a lot for the info. I'll look into dry-mounting around here for future projects.
Chris,
Sorry I didn't say that I was planning on spraying the drawings with some old Krylon Workable Fixatif that I have. My guess is that several layers of that would prevent the charcoal from lifting? Interesting thought of making a print, only I'd like to keep the original size, which is a little bigger than the printer is capable of.
When you do your pastels Chris, on Wallis paper or whatever, do you also always dry-mount your flexible surface to your support before beginning the painting or drawing?

If your intent is to use the drawings to get commissions, I really think they need to be properly matted, framed, and shown in their best light.

While I should listen to your words of wisdom, these quick sketches really don't warrant the time and money for proper mattes and frames.
Thanks,
Holly
