Mermaid Week #3: Watery Glass Dome

August 3, 2016 by Sandy Allnock 9 Comments [featured_image}

Mermaid week continues…this time with watery brusho!

Watery Glass Dome

Brusho was an obvious choice to use for such a “wet” subject matter! I love to find creative ways to paint with these powders. While it may not have gone as I originally planned—I plowed through. Let me know what you think! Watch the video below, or click HERE to see it in HD on YouTube.

Sandy Allnock Mermaid for you Lawn Fawn

And here’s the promised color chart if you’d like to pick out a few colors:

Color-alongs this weekend!

On Sunday I’ll be online live, coloring the Greeting Farm mermaids below – you can download the digis and get them printed out, and be ready to color! I’ll be using Copics but you can use whatever medium you want, of course.
