I don't paint- I suck at it. I have for fun as a kid, but I was never any good. I can't draw, either. But I feel like trying to paint something, anyway. I need a small bit of advice from you folks.
1. What kind of canvas is a good lasting canvas that the painting can be preserved on for the long haul?
2. What is an easy paint for beginners to work with?
3. IF I work with charcoal instead of paint, how do I preserve it so it doesn't smudge?
4. How can I remove paint from the canvas if I made a mistake? Is there a special kind of paint remover I can use on the canvas? Can it be used on any canvas?
Thank you.
