Painting with Brusho

A definitive go-to guide that encourages artists of all abilities to explore the improvisational properties of Brusho & show how incorporating it into their painting repertoire can fundamentally alter how they work in colour.

Across 10 step-by-step projects, 144 pages & 300 illustrations Joanne Boon Thomas demonstrates how the simple step of adding a spritz of water to your Brusho can result in vibrant, expressive paintings with breath-taking, spontaneous fusions of colour in a loose, bold style.

Included are a full range of techniques such as what can be achieved using only one colour, how to effectively blend primary colours & the hidden qualities of black Brusho. 

Short demonstrations throughout display the impact of using a bleach solution, how to utilise wax resist for effect, using a flat wash & how "line and wash" can work as a loose framework for your paintings.
