I work with watercolors a lot and one of my favorite tricks is using rubber cement as a resist. It's a fast and
easy way to create unique painted surfaces full of texture.
All you need is a jar of rubber cement, watercolor paper and watercolors!
There are so many ways to get creative with this process!
Here are a few of my favorites...
The result is unique and colorful paper that can be used for all kinds of creative projects!
