When stamping if you put something slightly squishy under your substrate like a silicone mat or fun foam you may find you get the marks you are looking for but needing to use less paint. Great ideas.

Yes, I do alot of collagraph printing and the glue textures can be very effective in that too. Lovely tip for use with these, many thanks X😀

I do similar things to this, I collected some wine corks then sliced them up and stuck them to card they make good irregular marks within the circles, I think as artists we have to use what we have! Also if you use something softer beneath your paper when trying out your tools like a foam pad or gel plate it will help with the impressions of the tools :)

I genuinely enjoy how you push limits with potential tools and techniques, and further how you share your experience of putting them through their paces! I loved all of the results, of course some more than others based on my preferences. I can see how well this sort of experimentation aligns with an attitude of curiosity, asking “what if?”, as we challenge ourselves as artists. As always, thank you for sharing!

Hi Louise, Just found your channel and it looks so interesting. Can't wait to watch more of your techniques. Love the brush, and wondering what the string is from. Also, can you explain again about sealing the stamps. Thanks so much for sharing your techniques!

@LouiseJannetta

Жыл бұрын

Sorry, it has taken a while to reply. The blue string or rope was just nylon rope; the finer stuff was nylon fishing twine but probably for sea fishing as it was thick and robust. My partner fished, and he was chucking it. I seal the stamps with diluted PVA, which is non-soluble once dry. It is reasonably safe to use PVA glues that are used in woodwork, but best to read the properties or usage of the product.😀Hope this all helps X

I think they would print better with some papers or foam under the paper. I'll make some more texture tools for my gel plate.

Hi, thanks for watching. The tools are sealed with clear acrylic or PVA and are a little water-resistant, so I can just gently wash them. They have lasted quite well and are still usable, although I mainly use them just for demos. X😀

Are you using liquid acrylic paint?

@LouiseJannetta

5 ай бұрын

Hi Karen, no, I use watered-down acrylics, which I sometimes add acrylic medium to bind the pigment. However, if diluted acrylic is used on an absorbent surface, like paper, the pigment is absorbed, and the binding medium isn't necessary X. Many thanks for watching X😀

With the tube with cord wrap if you put a dowel inside and press down as you roll it you will get more marks. At least that is my theory. 🙂
