Brusho, it’s been a while

Hi friends! Do you remember a few years ago when Brusho was the “it” product? It was showing up all over the internet mainly with cardmakers and art journalers but these fun watercolor powders are great for special effects in paintings too!

I used them to create this painting. When sprinkled on wet paper it makes lovely textures and colors and you can dilute it in a palette for more traditional effects. I’ll show you how I used it in this step-by-step tutorial!

You will need watercolor paper, water, a palette, brushes, and pigment powders for this lesson. some brands I recommend are:

• Brusho: Blick has single pots and sets or this is a great deal on a set from Amazon and has free shipping!

• Colorburst sets of 6 at Blick or on Amazon

• Infusions *top pick if you want to buy single colors *affiliate links used

Just a reminder: I am offering a 40% discount on my Watercolor Landscape Workshop in honor of Plein Air April. *Use coupon code PLEINAIR if the discount doesn’t show up automatically. Offer ends 5/1/24. Happy crafting!
