so I finally determined that with an escort it would be OK but am
wondering how others have dealt with this. I do not look forward to a

them I wish to teach “my” beginners with out the stress of unexpected behaviors.

<font color=green><span style='color:green'>The only paint that gets the white
powder on it is my W & N Veridian. We have very hard mineral water
and since I started painting with distilled water, it no longer happens.
I am assuming that it really isn't mold.<br>
<br>
The teacher that I took a couple classes from at the U / Houston got black mold
on her actual painting from pressing it overnight between two pieces of
board. She made some <i><span style='font-style:italic'>very interesting </span></i>efforts
to save that piece.<br>

moldy--phthalo green. It only does this when I haven't used a palette for a
long time. There is a whitish powder on that color, but it doesn't seem to
spread to other colors. I clean the powder off with a Q-tip soaked in rubbing
alcohol. Then I spray the whole palette with alcohol. I've never seen this mold
in a finished painting, but I seldom use the phthalo green or, for that matter,
any other green. It may be that other greens have phthalo in their composition
and could have this propensity. My paints are mostly Winsor and <st1:City
