Hi Laura, Thanks for the packing advice. But PLEASE don't apologize for the nude! Nudes are the basis of all fine art. We all have a body. I don't know why people get so upset. All my drawing and painting is of nudes. I use colored in on paper. I send them in a tube that I buy at the Post Office. Not the best, but I live in a small town and we don't have better stores that carry the cardboard ones. It seems that people prefer their own framing, so why spend the money.
Thanks again for your packing advice and the time it took to tell us. Ciao, Carol Ann
