CHAPTER 9

Texture Where You Want It

The best art may never come into existence as long as you have a fear of ruining something that is precious to you. How many times have you considered adding wild gestural strokes, splatters or drips but stopped yourself because you’re afraid of messing up your art? Well, put your what-ifs behind you, because we have an ESCAPE key, just like the one on your computer! You can control chaos, and we’ll give you the secrets to testing the waters first.

Whether you want to embellish with drips and splatters, shapes, crackle or drawings, you have the power to test them out before you commit.
