May 16, 2019

Hey everyone. I’m sharing Brea Reese alcohol ink techniques – let the happiness begin. I had the opportunity to have some of these inks sent to me for review. I also purchased a few additional colors on my own along with the Brea Reese waterproof paper. These Brea Reese inks are very vibrant and work fabulously on the Brea Reese waterproof panels and the waterproof paper. To me these inks seem to blend easier than other alcohol inks and they work beautifully with other inks as well.

Inexpensive Watercolor Palette – Is It Worth the Money?

March 27, 2019

Hey peeps. Inexpensive Watercolor palette – Is it Worth the Money? Yes it is especially if you are a beginner. Inexpensive watercolor palettes make it easy on the wallet. Watercolor palettes can be purchased as a set or you can make one of your own. Purchasing tubes of watercolor paints can get expensive so I recommend starting with one already made. I saw this palette on Amazon and decided to purchase it for a review. This watercolor palette is perfect for on the go travel. The colors are vibrant and easy to blend.
