Coliro is watercolour mixed with powdered mica – this creates effects to the naked eye that are pretty much impossible to capture using a camera but this blog will give you a flavour of what Lucy has been showing folks live on our Try it Tuesdays here at Tindalls Newmarket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are going to start with black paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Use any soft watercolour brush and wet it well with plain water<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Be patient it takes a little time for the top surface to hydrate – you are looking for a single cream sort of consistency<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You will see when the consistency is right<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You can load quite a lot of paint on the brush<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This gives you a flavour of how different thicknesses of paint give different effects – Lucy will always be happy to show you for real <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You can use Coliro for calligraphy as well as painting<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Load your pen from your brush<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

and write<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A few samples<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Note the green dragon colour on the right of the sample sheet<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now here is the same colour on white paper – completely different – this is one reason that we would encourage you to come into the shop and take a look for yourself the other is so that you can see for yourself the beautiful shimmering effects of this luscious paint<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thanks for looking<\/p>\n\n\n\n
