What a lovely demo - interesting to see how you were able to adapt the project when it went a little wrong - I love the finished piece.

Beautiful cover, inspired to get out my Brushos x

Great idea with the brushos! The cover looks really good, despite the mishap with the image transfer. I like how you incorporated the oops and made it part of the art work!

[renee logan]

thanks for sharing Irma, ..love how you carried on when the image transfer didn't quite work for you..I have had this happen ....your use of the brush's was great..i have them, but was not sure how to use them..did you poke a hole in the top of the container...?..thanks for sharing your art...love your note book idea!

[Irma]

Dear Kate, thank you so much for your positive response. I was very insecure for my first video, I am glad you liked it! Hugs - Irma

[Irma]

Thank you so much for your lovely response! YES, get out your brushos and play along. Hugs - Irma

[Irma]

;-) I first thought about deleting this part, but hey, I am only human as well. Thank you for your lovely response. Hugs - Irma

[Irma]

Hi Renee, yes I peeked a hole in the caps, what comes out is more than enough! Start playing with them, I am addicted!
Thank you very much for your lovely response. Hugs - Irma

VERY BEAUTIFUL AND INSPIRATIONAL PIECE Irma! I have a couple of questions; what is "brusho" and what is the powder that you sprinkled in the beginning and then used water? this might be the same question. I went to the list on Donna's page but saw nothing of "brusho"? Thank you so much.

[Irma]

Dear Wanda, Brushos are the powder that I was using in the video. Brusho is a water soluable mineral powder (pigment) available in different colors. Maybe you can ask Donna to list them in her shop. These are sooo fun to work with!
Thank you very much for your lovely comment. I hope I could answer your question. Hugs - Irma

What a great idea! Thanks for leaving in the oops, I've had it happen to me but wasn't sure how to fix it. Love how you did it!! And those brushos look great!!! Was it modelling paste you put n first? Loved your project!!!

[Irma]

Hi Cheryl, yes I used modelling paste first. Thank you for your lovely comment! Hugs - Irma

[wanda marie]

Thank you, yes I get it and loved it! Going to look for them now. Thank you

[Carmen Hays]

So great to see someone sharing their mistakes and going on to create a beautiful project. You did an awesome job. Look forward to your next project.

[Teresa]

Nice recovery! I am not familiar with Brusho, but I am going to get some. And I love the color and textures on your cover.

I really enjoyed your video and process. I went from not knowing what Brusho is to needing it right now. I hope to see more videos from you, Irma.

[Irma]

Thank you Carmen! And you will probably see much more "mistakes" in my videos :-/. Hugs - Irma

[Irma]

Thank you so much Teresa! Yes, you certainly have to play with Brushos!!! Hugs - Irma

[Irma]

Hi Meribeth, oh yes you NEED them ;-) Hugs - Irma

Thank you for sharing this lovely video. I learnt about a new medium today Brusho.

[Glenda Hoagland]

Irma, thanks so much. I loved this video and the painting that you completed and used to cover the notebooks. I have never tried Brusho, will have to give it a go. I especially loved how you worked through a process that did not initially work. It really gave the painting texture and the brusho integration of color was perfection. Look forward to future videos.

Lovely, lovely, lovely. Thank you x
