Instructions:

- To cold pressed watercolor paper, add a coat of gesso.
- When dry, paint a light coat of acrylic paint (the lightest
color of 3 that you have chosen for this project).
- When dry, add the medium color but leave some of the first
color showing in the middle.
- When dry, add a wash of the darkest color but don't let
it dry.
- Spritz with water and let sit for a minute or two, then
wipe or dab off. A lovely mottled effect will be the result.
- When dry, stamp with a background stamp painted with a light
coat of gesso. Be sure to wash the rubber stamp quickly and
don't let the gesso dry on it.
