Stoned Marble


I loved the Stone technique! A few paints were selected and treated with photo-flow I believe. Or some sort of mixture that causes the paint to separate from other paint. I chose a base color which would be the "vein" of the entire sheet. In this case -- navy blue. I then proceeded to use the treated paints as follows: Dip brush into treated paint. Tap brush into garbage a few times to get rid of huge drops. Hit brush on top of stick allowing paint to spray off of the bristles onto the base color which lays across the vat patiently awaiting friendly color companions.

It was too cool for school!
