29 December 2012 - Glass Paint (home made) & Dot-Painting

 

I made home-made glass paint using PVA glue and food dye

as suggested in a Klutz kids' activities card,

2 drops of food dye in 1 teaspoon of glue.

 

I used the wrong end of a paintbrush

for dot-painting on an empty honey jar

and kept the design very simple.

 

It becomes transparent as it dries.

 

NOTE - it is not water-proof

23 May 2012 - Bronze Gouache on PVA on Paper

That little pot of gold gouache had dried up

rock solid

so I went and bought a little pot of bronze gouache

but then discoverd

you can revitalise dried up old gouache

by adding a bit of demineralised water

It's raining gently tonight, it was nice waiting at the bus stop, watching the slow-falling tiny drops shining in the glow from the street lights.
