    Guys please help me out...

    I am doing my first tanjore painting. I have finished putting the gold foil and started painting with water colours.
    I diluted the paint with little water and coloured the face and clothes etc..but after drying the paint is chipping off....it becomes flaky and i end up removing it...:bonk
    I dont know what to do.....please help:spin

    Have you finished the painting ? How did you solve the problem of the Poster Colour painting I mean the patches and the the paint flaking? Many seem to be facing it .If you have found the reason why it happened
    or solved the problem , just convey it as it would help many.:confused2:
