The Painter Within
Experimenting with Paste Paper I am trying to follow up with the things I learned at my Paste Paper Workshop. I think I have all the supplies; watercolor paper, wall paper paste, acrylic paints and a big surface to work on. No project in mind yet, I just want to freely make different color and designs on my paste papers.
My first attempts looks like this:
   After they dried I in added more paste mixture with a contrasting or interesting color and pulled textures through them. Wall paper paste was used on my first papers but it was a bit messy.
The teacher used Floetrol as the paste medium so I found that at Lowe's and will try it today. The Floetrol was easier to use and less mess.
 My next task is to group my papers in piles that I think would be attractive in my different projects. Art Mundo's Calendarart is my first challenge that I will try using my new papers. When I complete a few I will show you the results. Related postsAdd a comment |
