Art Journal Practice with Texture Paste & Watercolours

An important part of learning how to make art, is knowing how your mediums will react together, some play nicely and others don’t. Practice is a great way to learn what works and what doesn’t!

In this video presentation I have a quick practice play with some “True Grit” texture paste from IndigoBlu and Brusho Pigment powders (that I’ve previously made into spritzer inks) just to see how they react together and how the colour soaks and flows into the texture of the paste.
