Advent Calendar-
24 Numbered envelopes containing 4.5x6" Surprise holiday watercolor images on 140lb watercolor paper with or without Paint set. I'm offering two paint sets matte (example nutcracker) or mica shimmer (example landscape) paint. Advent Calendars are to be opened one a day starting December 1st. The envelopes will be numbered 1-24, tied together with string and deliver in a box. All 24 images are holiday or winter themed. This set can be painted with supplies not included like markers, crayons, colored pencils or any other favorite medium at home.
The finished paintings can be used to create holiday cards, placed in 4x6 frames, given as gifts, used as present labels, or even used in scrapbooking , etc.
All Clouded Dream Studio paints are hand mulled on a glass plate in very small batches. High quality pigments are combined with my homemade binder which is composed of all organic ingredients. The binder consists of pure gum Arabic, distilled water, local Texas honey, vegetable based glycerin and clove oil.
Half Pan – 19 x 16 x 10 mm, approx. 2 ml
Quarter Pan - 17 x 15 x 5mm, approx. 1 mL
Mini Pan – 1 x 1 x 0.5mm, approx. 0.5mL
The half pans have a magnet at the bottom of the container and are wrapped in foil with a label. The quarter pans and eighth sized pans do not come with magnets. Each pan is filled in multiple thin layers allowing time to dry in between each pour. It is quite common for handmade watercolors to have cracking on the surface, imperfections or to contain small bubbles or air pockets which will NOT affect the use or quality of the paint. Pans are overfilled to compensate for these irregularities.
To activate place a drop of water on the top of the paint or lightly mist with a spray bottle of water and allow it to sit for a minute or two and then circle the paint brush. For thinner washes or a slightly transparent look add more water and for thicker, more vibrant and opaque colors add less water. Bolder colors can also be achieved by applying the paint in multiple layers.
If you have trouble removing the wrapping off of the half pans please place into the freezer for 10-20 minutes or remove the wrapping very slowly. Due to the high humidity of southern Texas some paint might become tacky during shipping.
Colors might vary slightly due to the monitor or phone they are viewed on.
