    Our Artist in Residence answers your questions
    Q: Maddy asks: "What kind of cake watercolors do you use?"
    A: I don't have any paints in that format - in my experience the cake style watercolors tend to be more chalky and not well pigmented. I generally buy watercolor paint in tubes or sticks and fill my own pans that way. The brands I prefer are Daniel Smith and QoR (by Golden).
     
    Feedback From Past Tutorials
    Linda has ideas for the Eggshell Mosaic Background: "What a terrific re-cycling idea. I can't wait to make eggs for my husband's birthday lunch today and re-use the egg shells in a fab card for his next birthday."
