Procedure

Step 1

Freely colour in an area using all specified Art GRIP Aquarelle pens. Overlap the colours to achieve a lively area of colour after subsequent water wash is applied. TIP: Test the colour mixtures and intensity on a separate sheet of watercolour paper beforehand!

 

Step 2

Apply a wash to the area with brush and water and then allow to dry.

 

Step 3

Select an attractive section of this painted area, draw around it and cut it out. The area should be large enough for the first letter to fit easily onto it.

 

Step 4

Print out template at 100% of actual size. Place the template on the watercoloured cutout and transfer the design with graphite paper and pencil. To do this, lay graphite paper, dark side down, underneath the template sheet. Trace the letters with a pencil.

 

Step 5

Colour in the first letter with PITT artist pen "F" black.

 

Step 6

Transfer the remaining letters of the word onto the card using graphite paper.

 

Step 7

Colour in the letters using PITT artist pen "F" black. 8. Position the prepared first letter in front of the block letter and stick it down.
