Apparently you can correct mistakes by covering them with the white inktense. According to Lachri Fine Art ( the artist who did the dolphin and sea turtle for the new inktense tins) let dry, paint over mistake with the white, let dry and repaint, simple as that. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, yes I think you can. I have not tried it yet. Probably because I am too impatient to wait for it to dry :)

Hi, I just order a set 72 of blocks to go with my pencils. ,on sale at Amazon.com. Take a look at Lisa's work, she makes it look so easy!

[@shannonwolff698]

Lisa makes it ALL look easy.... LOL!! Talent and practice I am sure.

I ran across your wonderful video and will give this a try with the gel pens. I am doing an old truck and with the Inktense pencils they bleed over into another color, it's great when I want them too. But a serious problem other wise. When do you press the wonder under onto the fabric, before Painting or after?

[@ThreadSketched]

Thanks for watching! Yes, it is difficult, if not impossible to control bleeding of color. This technique is definitely not fool proof, but I have had decent results with practice. Good luck!

Did you pour water into the cap when you were making the wispy brown feathers? also, you can paint the white on to cover Ooppses, it is very opaque. then put blue back over that.

[@ThreadSketched]

I did Lisa. I usually spritz a little water into the lid of whatever color I happen to be using at the time. Also, in some cases white can be used to hide mistakes. I don't usually have much success with doing it that way though, unfortunately.

[@rousingtherelics]

Niiice! Were you mixing the browns of the wings with Elmers glue as a fixative?

[@ThreadSketched]

Thanks! No glue, just water and allow to dry, that's it!

[@claudiahemmings2080]

Great video and a beautiful finished result. I'm not clear on what's in the jar for painting though (eg the first colour you used) - is it just the dry block - no water added? Or is there water added to the jar? I'd really appreciate clarification on that so I have the best chance of getting it right. You have a lot of those little jars - you must really like pimentos!

[@ThreadSketched]

Good question, and yes, it is just dry a dry block of color. I put a few drops of water in the lid of the jar. It is hard to see in the video because I speed it up, but I go to the lid, and then into the jar with my brush. It's just like using a set of traditional watercolors. Good luck! FYI, I will also be adding a link to the duck design below the video soon.

[@claudiahemmings2080]

Thanks so much for replying to my queries. Much appreciated.

Keep em coming :)

[@lazyjranch]

I would like to know what project this flying duck was added to? A quilt? or something else? Or was it framed and stretched like a canvas I would like to see the finished project.

[@ThreadSketched]

Thanks for the comment Janet. Actually, it is still loose as it appears in the video. I use it at shows to allow customers to experience it as a piece of painted fabric.

Where did you get the drawing that you traced?
