Yes, you're right. Heat sets it into the page, and she heat dried it several times. Leaving it on an unfinished work for more than a few days can also make it stick badly like that. Ah well, live and learn. Good video on values, though. I love the B&W work.

I knew of this. But there are some areas which weren't affected. And I also tried it without the hair drier on scrap paper afterwards, and it did the same 😬😬😬 wonder if areas of the paper was a bit damp or damaged before I applied the masking fluid.. since I live in a very humid country 😶

@@Nianiani That actually sounds like a defective or poorly mixed bottle of masking fluid, because it's essentially behaving as though it were old straight out of the bottle, and only in some spots. Also, I have seen artists mix their masking fluid with water (!!!) or apply on top of a plain water wash which shocked me when I saw it. I'd have thought this extra water would ruin its ability to bond, but no, came out perfectly. I tried to think of one of the videos where I saw this mixing; I'm sorry but I could only find one. This is one by Yoko Harusaki where she applies masking fluid on top of a water wash so that she gets a diffuse effect: Watercolor draw with swab【Mimosa】v=LHHua04llJY. The masking pulled right up at the end, just as it should (though she does appear to be scrubbing at it with a kneaded eraser). So it's not the paper or the humidity, though if it were stored in a very hot or sunny place that might affect it too. Give that bottle an extended and vigorous shaking; if it still doesn't pull up as it should, buy a new one and trash the one you have now. I store mine upside down and in a cool dark place, maybe that will help you too. I am not a professional artist, these are just my experiences. Thank you for making these videos; I have learned a lot from you!

@@jasher2847 That is awesome! Thank you so much for the info. I'll give it a go. I rarely use masking fluid, so I don't have much experience at all

You’re welcome 😊

🤣🤣🤣

Thanks so much!

Yea. Sadly can't find it anywhere where I live though 😭

sadly I have tried that, and got similar results... I think it's probably the condition of m paper, since my room is really hot and humid...
