    Beautiful!, I’m always late to the party but are you getting those inks on the parts you’ve already colored?

    Yeah, a little. But being careful around her skin areas. It didn’t affect the colored parts that much. 😊

    Thank you so much. I will pick some up next time I am out. I got a fixative spray and it kinda dulled my piece with a whitish film so I was so excited to see your beautiful finish. Thank you for the tip. You have a lovely sense of color with your work. I love it.

    And are you spreading the color squeezing your watercolor ‘brush’ and do you ever use a heat gun AS you work?

  • @jenscoloringcorner
    @jenscoloringcorner21 күн бұрын

    Maybe squeezing a little, but being careful not to over saturate the paper. I did not use a heat gun, since I wasn’t using much water, but I suppose you could. 😊

    @@64cindymarie Sorry, just now saw this! The gesso leaves lines and that shows up with whatever medium you use. That's why I don't like it, but of course that's just my opinion. You should try it if you're interested and see what you think. Maybe you'll get better results than I have. 😉

    What do you use to prevent colored pages from fading after framed?

  • @jenscoloringcorner
    @jenscoloringcorner24 күн бұрын

    This process is to protect the colored pages. you can then frame after you have sprayed the fixative. If you have a page that is already framed, you can simply remove it from the frame, spray the fixative and allow it to dry completely, and then reframe it. Hope that helps.

    Absolutely gorgeous, I agree about the Kuretake watercolours, however the set I have is one of the originals when they first came out and it doesn't have that luscious colour of dark green that you used. I am still trying to finish my picture (still haven't done much due to my arthritic wrist and thumb), but I will get there at some point lol. Tfs xo
