I was teaching a Paintnight class after the Van Gogh immersive exhibit. I discovered that the Dollar Store Prang tempera paints were so watery and transparent they might as well have been finger-paint. This was a demo model I tried to salvage. But the paint was so thin, it buckled the cardboard. Since the cardboard was long and skinny, I just kept adding extra humps to Elephant Mountain. The piece knocked around in the back of my car for a few months before I rescued it.
