[@cilenebosch3806]

New to acrylic painting, (painting in general) and love this technique. I enjoy the unique types out of the ordinary. styles. This is great and looking forward to trying this.

[@LindaCelestian]

Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it and hope you have fun when you give it a try. Linda

[@cilenebosch3806]

@LindaCelestian can you help me understand better the application of the white to create the broken glass effect. I got a lot of texture but don't see the effect. The first try I didn't wait for black to dry and ended up with just black texture. The next try I waited, added the white and covered wirh plastic wrap but again only have texture no broken glass effect. HELP!!!

[@LindaCelestian]

@@cilenebosch3806 I hope I can help. Wait for the black to fully dry. The white should be mixed with something to water it down but not so watery that it will dry transparently. You want it to be slightly transparent but still white to get the effect. Does that make sense? It's hard to tell when the paint is wet, whether it will dry transparent or not. If that is what is happening then add more white paint to your mixture. I use the same technique in this video czcams.com/video/-EEaB5H9HDs/video.html and this video czcams.com/video/GHvOCQx28P8/video.html

[@Anjalifinearts]

[@simaabedini3617]

Where is parchment paper please thanks 🙏

[@LindaCelestian]

@@simaabedini3617 Parchment Paper is a baking paper sold in grocery stores to put on baking sheets. Wax paper or tin foil would work but what would be even better is Freezer Paper also found in grocery stores near other wrap products. Watch my Monoprinting Tutorial video to see how I use Freezer Paper.
