Published: Tue, 03/01/22
Hello
Welcome to the FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter #354
I would like to thank you this week because I have found out that 584 subscribers last week opened this newsletter, which means I need to thank you for opening my newsletter last week and reading it. This is my 354th newsletter that I started in May of 2015. I believe I only have missed one week since I started it so many years ago. I can't believe I still have things to write about after 7 years.
Thank You Subscribers!

Smooth vs Textured Washes
When working wet-into-wet like I have all my student do when floating their pigment in a puddle of water I next have to teach you about smooth vs textured washes when floating your pigment.
Watch video to see the different ways I go about getting smooth vs textured surfaces when working wet-into-wet and floating your pigment.
To get some texture in your washes these sponges will do the trick BUY HERE
Artist of the Week
Henry Casselli
Here is an artist that must have been a great admirer of Andrew Wyeth... this artist Henry has outstanding work and so many of his works have that Wyeth feel... amazing!
Paint-a-long Details: the paint-a-long this week will be done on Stonehenge Aqua 300lb Cold Press using Holbein Watercolors. The Sunflower for the Ukrainian people.
