You can wet your paper , then sprinkle the shavings onto the damp paper. The shavings will,react wirh the water, blooming and flowing with the water, you can tilt the paper and the water will flow all over the paper as little or as much as you like.

About 10 minutes into the video . . . when I saw the palette knife come out, I started saying, "you should try mixing it into some texture paste!" I told you several times, but I don't think you heard. :-) I'll resume watching now, and see if you try it. I don't have the pencils yet, but I think I'll be trying when I get some!

@cheiron Жыл бұрын

You certainly can mix it into texture paste...it is pigment :) Definitely try it!

@rtd1791 Жыл бұрын

I was coloring with Distress Watercolor Pencils while sort of watching this video ;) Wound up having to backtrack a couple of times. I have yet to sharpen any of my pencils but your ideas have me so excited to try mixing shavings into a texture paste. Will the shavings completely dissolve or will there be delicious specks? Definitely hoping for specks. One of my favorite techniques is using acrylic mediums in place of water with water soluble products. My favorite mediums are GAC 100 for it’s viscosity and Golden’s fabric medium because it tends to make products that really shouldn’t work on fabric last as well as improving lightfastness. I practice on underwear and night shirts. Before I realized how much I love fabric surface design I used to hate white cotton panties and now that’s pretty much all I buy; a perfect blank canvas and practical to boot.

@cheiron Жыл бұрын

Not sure on the pastes, I would think since the pigment is water reactive it would dissolve, but I will try it out!

@sharonyoung8251 Жыл бұрын

Yes, the pencils are similar to other products, however makers that frequently use the Distress products will live that the colors match or complement the other products in the line.

Beyond wonderful - thanks for the instructions and ideas! May I ask the measurements or even brand of your pans, since not all manufactures are identical and yours fit perfectly. A local artists supply store doesn’t carry pans! Dick Blick didn’t either; now they have half pans and Schmincke full but expensive. I got some on Amazon. I put pieces of magnetic adhesive sheet on the bottom of pans so if colors were added they could be moved, but when I bumped the metal container they wouldn’t fall out.

@cheiron Жыл бұрын

Hi Beth. My pans have magnetic tape on the bottoms (I mention that at the beginning of the video :)). Mine are full size pans and my store in NJ had them in a big clear bowl just loose.. My pans measure approx 1 1/8 X 3/4 from edge to edge and there is no brand name on them. I found these on amazon that look to be that size: amzn.to/3BR1Rjo Hope that helps!
