Jackie this is a fantastic tip and one I will definitely use in my painting. I have also printed off your copy of other masking fluid tips Thankyou so much for this. This alone will benefit a lot of artists as there are many who find masking fluid quite daunting. You have truly aspired me to create more watercolour seaside paintings. Thankyou again for your inspiration. Xx🥰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I’m so glad. Masking fluid is such a wonderful tool. It may take some practice but that’s no different than any other technique.

[@myrnalandersartist]

Omg whaaaat?? You can make it bloom? I've always been disappointed with my masking fluid results because the lines left are too sharp and I have to soften them all. Thanks for this!

[@JackieHernandezWatercolor]

Yes! I would experiment with your masking fluid to see how well it works, but it’s magical ✨

[@craftytraveler9238]
