there is a paint called Createx that is used by all the airbrush artists to paint on leather and fabric. it is flexible but needs to be heat set. It comes in jars so it could be painted by hand..this is the paint of choice for leather jackets artists. these are the instructions for use Leather 1) Clean leather by wiping with mineral spirits or rubbing alcohol. 2) For best results, lightly spray mist a base coat of Opaque White on areas to be sprayed. 3) Apply color, avoiding over saturation and excessive paint layering. 4) Allow colors to dry thoroughly before heat setting. 5) Iron for 30 seconds at 225°using a protective cloth, or use a hot air gun at highest level for five minutes.

My son has a medieval day coming up at school, so i made a crown to go with his costume....the dark prince

sweet work, great color and nice photography!!!!

welcome to the forum, great to see your work....i was impressed with your use of color, never an easy thing to achieve

anne, my thoughts are with you and your family....i have worked in hospitals for over 25 years and have seen many wonderful outcomes when the worst was expected...never underestimate the HUGE effect a positive outlook has and remember to look after yourself...mothers always put themselves last but your daughter will need your strength so take the time to care for you!!

another great creation
