Painting with Brusho: Create Vibrant & Expressive Paintings Using Watercolour Ink Powder by Joanne Boon Thomas

Brusho - a highly pigmented watercolour ink powder - is a unique and exciting painting medium that is renowned for its versatility. Joanne Boon Thomas demonstrates how adding a spritz of water to Brusho results in a breathtaking and spontaneous fusion of colour on the page. It is an easy method that allows you to produce vibrant, expressive paintings in a loose, bold style. A full range of techniques is included, such as what can be achieved using only one colour; how effective blending primary colours is; and the hidden qualities of black Brusho. Short demos show the impact of using a bleach solution; how to use wax resist for effect; when to use a flat wash; and how to use line and wash as a loose framework for your paintings. Ten step-by-step projects and numerous examples of the author's stunning work will inspire, all infused throughout with Joanne's exuberance and enthusiasm for this wonderful medium. This definitive go-to guide will inspire artists of all abilities to explore the improvisational properties of Brusho and incorporate it into their painting repertoire.
