<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 102135, member: 56"]Canadian artists, like Tom Thompson, did small sketches 'en plein air' as aide memoires for larger studio works. The sketches are frequently more interesting than the finished works (IMO). They did these sketches on small panels - cigar box lids sometimes - and stored the wet panels stacked and separated by match sticks. When you see those panels you can spot the mashed areas that were flattened in the stacking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
