We had poked holes in the lids of the powdered watercolors. In this painting, I took the lids right off and sprinkled larger quantities onto the surface. It’s a different look.
Still playing with the powdered watercolor paint. You can see what happens if you don’t get water on all parts of the paper in the first step. And, still having pooling problems.
In this one, I kept layering watercolor paint. Used a brush. Used a straw. Used salt. Used some powdered paint. I think I finally like it. Took long enough.
Ok. this time, I put mass quantities of the watercolor dust all over the paper. This is better. Do you see the red starburst? That’s what I’m going for, but all over the page.
This one started out pretty good. The watercolor sprinkles were doing their thing, but there was a spot in the middle that I just had to fix. Ruined the whole thing. So, I just took a damp sponge across it. It’s kind of interesting now.
