p.s. my painting is done in CHEAP tempera paints and a black oil pastel outline!
my painting is due tomorrow and i have more finals and stuff to study for so i dunno if i can drive to a hobby store or anything like that. is there anything else i can use for glue/anything i can glue it to?
or should i just leave it?
or should i laminate it?
haha thanks!

Yes, they can be. You will want to take them to a place that can run them through a roll laminator though. Go to Kinkos or something like it. Make sure you ask them specifically to use their roll laminator.
I wouldn’t laminate it for risk of damaging the painting… what you can do to keep it flat is to use an archival quality spray glue (can be found at a local hobby shop in the scrap booking section) and mount it on something more sturdy like a piece of craft plywood or archival board. Just don’t attach it to something like cardboard, it will dry rot and disappear over time.
