PAINTING TIPS
n Before proceeding, please read the brush in- formation that outlines the proper loading and use of the Blade and Crown brushes. These are included in the purchase of the brushes, and can also be found by click- ing on the Brushes tab at www.sharonbs originals.com. This information does not appear in the following painting instruc- tions, as it will be assumed that they are al- ready known and understood.
n When using Sharon B’s designer brushes, do not wet the bristles. Only the paint will be ab- sorbed into the bristles for each technique.
n Do not use a Sta-Wet Palette because it in- troduces too much moisture into the bris- tles. Using a paper palette is the best way to ensure proper brush loading and successful application of techniques.
n In order to keep the colors pure, change the water in the containers often.
