Confession: These guys aren't actually on my wall yet, so I'm not sure they should count as a PGSOMW project (That's Project: Get Something on My Walls. Obviously. haha... ). But they will go on my walls once I get the frame situation figured out, so... here they are!
I have enjoyed doing some watercolors now and then, and I really enjoy playing around with washes and textures. I came across an excellent, detailed photo tutorial on how to create this fun effect at watercolorpainting.com. It is very easy to get this fun result, and I look forward to playing around with it more in the future. Check it out!
Basically, you need watercolor paper, watercolors, a brush, and plastic wrap. That's it!
I just love the texture it creates. It reminds me of faceted gems.
So, what do you think? Is this something you would give a shot?





That makes such a fun effect! Love it!
