Apply another strip of paint (PTHALO BLUE) and wash it down to the bottom.

Dry with blowdryer.


While your brush is still wet, apply it using the flat brush method (lay brush flat) and “scrum” some paint onto the canvas.

Blow away excess pigment

While this is wet, apply some gold pigment powder with your small brush.

Blow away extra and dry.


Blow dry the back of canvas - helps the paint dry more thoroughly.

Blow dry the front, too!
