Back by popular demand is another technique for you to try using your Jane Davenport Mermaid Markers! You might remember the video where I shared a fun technique using the Mermaid Markers with stencils? Well you asked for some more techniques, so here you go! The video is all about resists and I have five products that you can make resists with and then try them with your Mermaid Markers.
But don’t worry if you don’t have these pens as many of these resists will also work with watercolor paints, dyes, other brush pens and a whole host of water-based products, so give them a try and see what effects you can get.
