I have never heard of paint pens, and wonder if they would be the answer to this problem? What brand would you recommend? I do a lot of fine outlining and embellishment on acrylic backgrounds and would certainly need black, white (good and opaque) and sepia to start with, in various thicknesses. Any advice would be very much appreciated!<br /><br />ShoshiShoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3384426562036266920.post-40119513539879251442014-10-03T14:41:21.551-07:002014-10-03T14:41:21.551-07:00Stunning, stunning... and did I say "Stunning...Stunning, stunning... and did I say "Stunning"? I absolutely LOVE this - it's a real combination of Zentangle with mixed media and the direction I am finding myself going in these days. I am going through a brown phase at the moment (probably heavily influenced by my experiments with teabags!) and this is really getting my creative juices flowing!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing a really GREAT idea.<br /><br />ShoshiShoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3384426562036266920.post-7636497526825443932014-09-27T10:35:56.225-07:002014-09-27T10:35:56.225-07:00they are wonderful, You have inspired me to get to...they are wonderful, You have inspired me to get to work.

I love the way I can scroll between the original paint prints and see details that have become structures in the later detailed work - like the tree trunk in the first one.
