Q: Does lipstick ever dry? How do you protect your work?
A: Lipstick performs like an oil based pigment (very similar to oil paints), however it does not have the same drying capabilities, which is why there are 3 ways your art can and will be protected.
- All artwork is sprayed with an art grade UV protectant + non-yellowing lacquer.
- Upon request, artwork may be additionally sealed with a high-gloss epoxy resin. This will add thickness, weight and reflective glass-like shine to your artwork.
- Upon request and for an upcharge, your artwork can be mounted in a UV-protected, museum-quality acrylic (on all sides) shadow box frame.

Q: Does Lex still put her kisses in her artwork?
A: While Lex no longer builds a piece from start to finish with her kisses (due to it’s extremely laborious nature) she will do so upon request and at a premium rate.
With lipstick as her primary medium, she will draw, smudge, blend and paint with her hands and brushes. However, she is still known to sprinkle in a few kisses and hide them like Easter eggs! Oh, and every piece is now sealed and signed with a kiss!
