Using colored inks with water color and acrylics


Using colored inks with water color and acrylics



Colored inks can bring profound effects on your art work.
If you haven’t visited the art supply store lately, this is
a good time to experiment with them. You can buy it in small
bottles and get variety of the colors.

The inks can be used for special effects for your painting with
water color as well as acrylics if you are going to water down
your acrylics.

From dawn to dusk the skies can be easily created with this ink.
I have tried collages and with mono printing techniques. It works
very well and brings the desired results.

Using wax with Water color


Using wax with Water color



One can use melted wax with water color. Although it is hard to remove. However, the area you protect with wax remains there forever. For example, white.

Open strokes of melted wax can be applied with a bristle of your brush and be allowed to dry completely. You can paint over it and it brings the texture to the painting since water color beads on the wax area.

Try it, it may surprise you.
