Ink-Resist Arwork
Here is the process for creating ink-resist artwork:
- Start with a throw-away watercolor painting (one that didn't work for you), to provide color shapes.
- Cover the shapes you want to preserve with white tempera or poster paint
(same thing) & let dry.
- Flow waterproof ink over the whole picture & let dry. I have used black, brown and blue ink.
- Wash off the entire surface with sponge & water. Protected (tempera) shape
will be preserved.
- Optional - Go in with ink pen and pick out details.
