Do You Have Any Tips? 🖌
Five art supplies I want to learn to use or use more frequently:
-
1.) Windsor and Newton Watercolor Ink: I have this in my art supply cabinet, I have been waiting to use it! I have used watercolor before, but I have never used watercolor ink before.
2.) Himi Gouache: I have tried this once and failed miserably 😂 But I know it takes practice. I love the way gouache paintings look, so I really want to learn how to properly use this stuff!
3.) Posca Pens: I have never used a Posca Pen before! I have seen artwork that uses them, and it looks stunning. I need to get some to try them out!
4.) Oil Pastels: These I have used a few times before, but I don't think I've given them a fighting chance, I have always sworn them off because of how messy they are! But I think I am ready to get messy and find out what they are capable of.
5.) Soft Pastels: Apparently, you can mix these with water! last time I used them, it was so dusty! I wanna try them again with water now that I know that is a thing.
If you have any tips or tricks on how to use these art supplies, let me know! I would really appreciate the advice :)
