I use both sides of scrap paper for tests, cleaning up etc. before recycling it

All paper, card & plastic waste is recycled

Cleaning wipes are saved for second use as painting rags or ink clean up rags

I buy vintage and previously-used frames from charity & thrift stores to display my art, currently in The Patch, Lewes  - fixing & restoring frames where possible

Printing inks clean up either with dish detergent (Caligo Safewash) or cooking oil (oil-based & metallic inks), avoiding anything harsher

I don't use any additional drying additives

I paint on repurposed wood and similar surfaces when I can find them

I re-use packaging materials when sending art out, as much as possible - so please do the same! I try to buy recyclable padded envelopes and use cardboard for added strength.
