Members Stewart Posted September 10, 2022 Members Report Posted September 10, 2022 What i am up to is figuring out how to fade contrasting colors.Watering down paint does not work for me. Tried a mediium that will flow paint easer-Not. so it's a light dip into the paint and brushing excess off. Sometimes. Smuge was fixed. Quote
Members rleather Posted September 10, 2022 Members Report Posted September 10, 2022 I love the vibrant colors you get while you are experimenting. You always get the most out of the paint. I wish I had a talent with paint, my dad did ,but it did not rub off on me. Thanks for sharing. Quote

Members Leescustomleather Posted September 10, 2022 Members Report Posted September 10, 2022 I am not sure if this is what you are looking for, but a brush modified to only have just a few bristles with a thinned down paint might give the effect you want, kind of like shading but with color. Quote

I modified a brush to creat long grass that a stamp could not do. never thought about that for the shading. It's these little tips that I learn from. Thank you. Haven't found a Forum on art that Is as full of share techiniqqques as this Forum is. Quote
