Today, Jeanne is challenging us to get Wishy Washy (MIX5 in the Mix-Ability forum.
To get my wishy washy on I spread water on mixed media paper and then rubbed gelatos over it rubbing it in with my fingers and then a clean wet flat brush to blend it out to the edges of the paper.
While it was still wet I used watercolor pencils and squiggled a stipple design on the top and bottom in the same tone color as the Gelatos.
I masked the flower shape with a stencil included in the stamps set and then used the reverse to block it off when I wanted to add the background dots around it with more Gelatos.
I think this will become a plaque in my studio when it's all organized.
