Watercolors in the mail

 These are the follow up to my post about using watercolor masking fluid.

 Once the masking fluid was removed all I needed to do was paint in the flowers and a couple of leaves.

 I painted some envelopes to match and enjoyed using them to answer my mail today.

 Here's a close up of one of the cards. 

 Here's a closer look at the envelopes.

Working with water colour colourless art masking fluid

 The brand of masking fluid I'm trying this time is Windsor and Newton

 Applying these fluids is always a bit awkward because of the nature of the product. (they're made of latex rubber and ammonia-at least this one is)

 Here you see how it looks when painted over with watercolors

The ease of removal was a pleasant surprise, it rolled off easily and left the paper underneath clean and undamaged
