VIDEO EXTRA "Textured Paint Background Technique"

In this clip from her DVD workshop, Collage Textures & Techniques, mixed media artist Claudine Hellmuth demonstrates an easy technique for adding texture to collage backgrounds. Claudine manipulates white acrylic paint with an old credit card to create cracks and grooves on her paper then highlights the effect with a light coat of color. The acrylic paint remains flexible when dry, so this technique is perfect for altered books or other projects that might experience bending or repeated handling.

Better than any movies I own I just received 3 of your videos - Claudine, Lesley, and Traci and I haven't gotten a thing done now for 2 weeks. Every minute I want to watch the videos - they are better than any movies I own. I have learned so much and just want you to know what a great job you did with these women and their art. Thanks again. I want to order a couple more collage artist tapes when I get some more money.
