View post →I did a little experimenting when I was illustrating a book cover. I bought a fern and used a stem of it to create a watercolor version of it. Â I brushed the one side of the leaf with red watercolor and pressed it on the watercolor paper, twice. The fuller version was the first “lay […]
View post →Wax resist is pretty fun to do. I melted some candle wax and used a fine brush to paint the lines of my drawing. After the paint dried it felt good to scrape the wax away to reveal the image. That’s my little gingerbread boy playing in the snow. ~Despina
