Unexplored Page

 

9x12" watercolor paper, golden fluid acrylics, oil pastels, a bunch of different white markers (a challenge to write on wet paint, go figure)

I had just a few drops of color left in a fluid acrylic containers, so I added water and dripped it on, painting the color across the page with a brush. Some of the oil pastels are on the first layer, under the acrylics, and some are on top, while still wet. I so rarely finish a bottle of fluid acrylics (maybe finished 3-4 ever).

Kat of Wright Story was so excited about yesterday's unwritten page that I decided to do another word today!

Have you tried Bubbled Brayer Backgrounds?

Love the color... question..what kind of white pen do you use that writes like that???
I'm thinking of using india inks in white with a glass pen....

bonnierose, on this surface, sakura gellyrolls and sharpie poster paint markers work, but not consistently. it could be that i didn't let the paint dry sufficiently, that's most likely the problem. i think i ruined the sharpie! opaque white india ink would likely work, just haven't loaded up the rapidograph to try. here's a page with white ink: http://daisyyellow.squarespace.com/vividlife/rapidograph-india-ink.html. Please do let me know if you try a white ink and i'll link over to your post.
