🎨🖋️ Exploring Watercolor Techniques: Wax Stick I used here, and some Masking points 🖋️🎨
Hey there, fellow artists! 👋 Today, I played with a watercolor technique I NEVER use, and I put two exciting methods in the spotlight: Wax Sticks vs. Masking. 🌟
🖍️ Wax Stick Wonder: Wax sticks are like magic wands in the watercolor world. When you use them, you create intriguing resist effects on your paper. The wax repels the paint, leaving beautiful, untouched areas that add texture and depth to your artwork. It's like a secret ingredient for adding surprises to your paintings! ✨
Perfect for a tree, sparkles on water, saving white spaces on flowers.
🎭 Masking Marvels: On the other hand, masking fluid is like a superhero's shield. It protects specific areas of your paper from paint, allowing you to maintain pristine whites or create crisp, clean lines. It's fantastic for preserving highlights and details that you want to shine in your piece. 🦸♀️
One big pro that you cant achieve with a wax stick...
Masking can be removed and then painted on.
Wax stick cannot be removed, I dod not feel any residue when I used .
So, which one should you choose? Well, it all depends on the effect you want to achieve. Wax sticks offer a unique, textured look, while masking fluid gives you precision and control.
Here's the scoop:
Experiment with both! 🧪 Embrace the creativity, try new things, and see where your watercolor journey takes you.
Remember, there are no mistakes in art-only opportunities to learn and grow. 🌱
Happy painting, my artistic friends! 🎨✨
