I'm a professional artist and like Cheryl of Misssouri I have found another use for the Plastic Hangers you can receive from purchasing clothing.
I use the pants hanger, the ones that are sqeezed together when two metal clips are pulled downward in order to clamp the clothing in place. I use these for drying watercolours, pen and ink drawings and screenprints in my studio.
I hope this helps some other starving artist out there.
great idea. just make sure art is set do there won't be drips or streaks. do you do watercolor? I have a really cool clipping from a fragrance ad that is sophia coppola done in watercolor. I really want to get one of me using the ad as inspiration. I have a dress almost exactly like the one in the painting. just peach. Check it out...
