Anything Goes - Dawn Heald

Morning all,

Saturday again, another week gone,

another week nearer Christmas!

Looking back at the projects our
DT has made over the year, I thought this one was
definitely worth showing again!
Wonderful Brushos and an amazing 
tutorial by Dawn.

Dawn says -

"I decided to really experiment with Brusho's and show their versatility. 

 The only thing I didn't get on to are resist techniques.

They mixed with everything I tried and stayed

 put, as long as the

 colour crystals are fixed with thickener, water,

 mediums, they stay.

         To make a sprinkler, I've shown below how to put some                         paper over, tape round with masking tape and

                               poke a few holes in the top.

             The lids do fit back on without having to remove your                                           sprinkler each time.

First off I made a colour swatch of all the pots,

 mixed with water

 and then Brusho Thickener. As you only

 need small amounts of colour

 crystals I used a straw that I cut into a V 

scoop shape at the end to

 take colour out of the pot.

Brusho Thickener tip - if you are having trouble

 getting it to dissolve

 in the water, heat in microwave for ten seconds. 

It works. I made up 

a smaller batch using 150ml water to 5 grams

 of thickener powder.

Here's an art journal page I made using various ways

 to apply Brushos.

I really do recommend these pots of

 wonderful colour".

Well I hope you found this really interesting.
