Favorite Gel Medium

From a session with Mindy Lacefield in Lifebook 2013
After being enrolled in one mixed media/art workshop after another, I have begun to have products I enjoy using more than others. For example, I have used many glues and gel mediums like Mod Podge, Liquitex medium, Golden medium, and Deco Art's DecouPage.

Although I know many mixed media artists love Liquatex Matte Medium, I have to say that my favorite so far is Deco Art's Decoupage. For me, it is not as sticky as Mod Podge, and needs less product than Liquitex to adhere strongly.


I have also been on a hunt for permanent markers to write over collaged backgrounds. Though many love using Sharpie brand markers for this, I have not had great luck with them.

I bought a few single markers to test out from various brands. I will be reporting my results soon!

Do you have favorite products?
