Thanks Michele. I really like that masking fluid technique. Looks fun. Now all I need is some greenery to to grow. Still at least a couple more weeks for our leaves to appear . 🥶😵💫

Lots growing here, but it's not exactly warm!
that tip with sticking the masking tape to your clothes to reduce its stickines is priceless. i'm going to use that for sure!

Thanks, Michele, for this video. I could see clever use of the third method to create water splashes.
Thank you for all your helpful tips 🥰🖼️🎨
What a great selection! Three more great additions to our tool box to play with. Thanks Michele
Hello Michele a lesson well learned today; being too neat and methodical is my challenge, however your videos shed more light on how to curb those tendencies. There are days when I'd like to roll my entire body in paint and splash myself across a large canvas...or maybe a slab of Canadian bacon across the head could help. LOL!

I'm just getting ready to do a watercolor painting for class and I am going to try one or two of these techniques right away. Can't decide which technique I like the best. Thank you so much.

Love these..I think they'd work well on collage paper and on book pages for use in my junk journals. 💜

I love collage, some day I may try it on my bathroom walls. Of course I'd need to seal afterwards.

I was wondering if you have ever used or can comment on black watercolour paper? I have seen it used and has a very dramatic look. Thanks

I haven't used it, but it's best with semi opaques and gouache, and of course metallics
The masking tape one looked great, the fluid one rubbish.
