Bleaching

The next few days you'll see projects created with different bleaching techniques. This was the focus of our club technique night this month.

One of the easiest ways to use bleach is to emboss an image and then "highlight" inside the embossed image using bleach. You can apply bleach with a q-tip, a dried-up blender pen, or even by filling your aquapainter with bleach. Just be sure to rinse your blender pen or aquapainter after you project is completed. The bleach will eat away at whatever you "store" it in so be sure to only store it in it's original container.
