Possibly my favorite resist technique of all time. It's super easy and more than a little addictive...
Crayon, meet paper.
Draw!
It helps to work in a room with strong light on one side--
you can kind of see your white crayon marks on the paper.
Paint!
The darker the paint, the better your writing will show.
Red, orange, purple.
Load your brush with A LOT of wet paint.
Paint a stripe along the bottom of the page and
Flip it upside down.
You may want to add extra paint to the orange stripe to help it run.
Lay it flat.
Fun!
If it's puddling somewhere you don't like, dab it with a paper towel.
Wet...
Dry.
Let's do more!
White gel pen + doodles.
Taa-daah!
