In this video I'm revisiting 2 bold stencils from #pmartiststudio Cacti and Prickly Thorns - putting them to work on my 12"X12" gel plate using the long Haul technique made famous by Patricia Cline Carmichael of @PMartistStudio As I build up layers using a mix of acrylic paints. After creating a series of prints I finish the piece with a beautiful ombre pull using 2 Golden Open paints revealing a richly layered final print.
What you will see in this video:
* Prickly Thorns and Cacti Stencils from #pmartiststudio
* Building rich layers with the Long Haul technique.
* Ombre pull using 2 6" brayers.
* 12"X12" gel plate.
