Playing with Brusho in Wild Wisteria

Playing with Brusho

HI, Happy New Year. I can't believe it's 2015. I've been painting every day but today I decided to play with the Brusho Inks I got from Amazon--Blick.  I bought the 12 pack before Christmas. I was disappointed it didn't come with directions... so I went to U Tube. and found I had to puncture the lid of each container with a pin to allow the sprinkles of ink to fall out.

 So here I did use the warm water as recommended and it does work better and just with my largest squirrel quill brush splashed on a wild wisteria.. I love wisteria so very much, none around now! ha ha.. but then I sprinkled, shook madly/wildly onto the wet paper the Ultra marine, which has various blues and purples in it. For the leaves- Emerald and the vine- Dark Brown. This was freeing. I'm going to try some more. I only put the water down where I wanted the color. I wish I had not put the green vine down the center but oh well. Close up you can see swirls of the color.. So much fun.

 Have you tried it?? What are doing this winter day?? Love to you,Diana

Trying Brusho and Look at Our Frog Visitor

 

Sorry it's a little blurry. But I so wanted you to see our frog. It lives in a dried up hydrangea blossom on my hydrangea by the back porch. It has freckles on his back, just a few and a racers strip down it's side. Sadie, our lab, has no idea why I'm talking to the flower but she can't reach it so he's safe. 

I"ve gotten in Brusho Art Crystals and am going to play with them today. Anyone have any tips?? They will be such fun. Have a wonderful day. love to each of you,Diana
