Supplies used: Cheap varnish, a piece of paper with watercolor paint, and a heatgun. |
Just drip a bit of the varnish on the paper, how much you want, in the shape you want |
While heating it >> stage 1 |
While heating it >> stage 2 After the first heating. I like to let it cool, and give it another heat blast, that way you can change the shapes a bit if you want to |
After the second heating. I like it this way (ready to cut out)... But only a tiny bit of varnish is used here, when you use some more, or a pattern of drips, you get a complete different result! |
This is the way it looks from the side... The paper is warped, but if you heat from the back it will straighten a bit, and ofcourse you can just tape it flat. |
Very cool! I can see this having a lot of interesting applications in mixed-media projects.
