Brusho reminder and last weeks late post, sorry !
Sunday, 5 June 2016
Brushing demo 13th June
Brusho-What to bring
Paper BOCKINGFORD 140lb Not is recommended. Some of the more expensive watercolour papers don’t work as well with some of the techniques, especially bleach. Large sheets are good! Bring plenty.
Watercolour Brushes for using with Brusho and some old brushes for bleach
Pencils rubber etc.
2 Water sprays one for pure water, one for bleach+water
Pots for water ( bring several!)
Palette
Cloths and old towels
Drawing board
Masking tape
Bleach --the household stuff
A separate container for bleach that you will apply with a brush
You might also need white wax crayon or candle. Permanent black markers ( thick and thin). Newspaper to cover tables; it can be messy.
Please come suitably dressed. Brusho might wash out but bleach would be a disaster!
Also you might want to bring along some pictures to work from. Any subject! Animals, seascapes, landscapes, figures, flowers. Here are a few Brusho pics to show you what you might choose.
