I am working on a piece that my wife is going to paint. This will be our second collaboration but the problems are a little different than the first one. She will be painting with India Ink and on the first one she used gesso to seal the wood before the painting. This piece has a lot more detail and she needs to see the drawing lines so gesso is not a good option. Can you tell me if there is another good option?
