Reeves Paint Winsor and Newton Watercolor Art Masking Fluid-Yellow 75ml

Candle wax can be applied at any stage in a painting to create texture or retain the light to a scene. Masking tape was torn into shapes in Skiing down into Les Carroz (above) to preserve the light in the snow on many of the chalet roofs.

SUMMARY: Masking fluid is a fantastic way to preserve the white of your paper and make your paintings sparkle. Discover how in this article. Masking fluid is great for watercolor on paper but it works also really well with fluid acrylic on canvas. I use it all the time on my big canvas paintings to preserve someareas from being painted. For the jetty, Naples yellow with a hint of cadmium yellow was painted with dry horizontal brushstrokes to suggest wooden planks. The post was also painted in the same colour. While the paint was damp, stronger tones of the same colours were used to add more depth into the lake.

A strong tonal shadow of Winsor violet with Naples yellow was painted in between the wooden planks and down the side of the post. This colour was also used for the chain on the boat, the rope and on the top of the buoy.If these areas are relatively shallow you can also use masking fluid as shown on this Revell 1/144 scale FA-18E super hornet. You can move the applicator around to spread the masking fluid where it is needed and you can even drag the nozzle around to aid this process further. Just make sure that you stay aware of how much fluid is coming out while you do this.
