This is one of the first exercises on the Brusho Secrets DVD set. It's designed to get you used to working with Brusho powder and just how little is needed to create stunning colour. Later lessons cover more advanced techniques like working with bleach, wax and ink in order to create a whole variety of eye-catching effects.
This simple figure study shows you how you can apply Brusho over the top of a line drawing to create a colourful, contemporary effect.
In this Brusho® landscape demonstration Joanne uses wax resist and a limited palette to create a simple but striking composition.
Brusho Secrets is the first and only instructional DVD that shows you how to paint stunning, impressionistic watercolours with Brusho paint powder.
