Mixing Hahnemühle With the Procreate App #hahnemühle #hahnemühlecézanne #procreateapp #hahnemühlebamboo

 This is an awesome background I made using

Dylusions Shimmer Sprays on a sheet of

Bamboo Mixed Media paper from 

Hahnemühle. 

I used loads of water, blotted and mopped up,

then added more water and shimmer spray.

I also used a heat gun to make the heat rings.

Lots of working on this sheet of paper with tools

and it held up like a champ!

No problem with warping, pilling, or shredding.

And I love the bright, brilliant color.

 I loved it so much that I imported it into the 

Procreate App on my iPad and tangled up

this mandala. I am still learning the program,

there is sooooo much you can do with Procreate.

And I still have my original sheet of color that

I can use for something else. 

I used tangle patterns: betweed, shattuck and flux.

 This is a 12" x 16" sheet of 

Cézanne Hot Pressed Mould Made Watercolor paper

from Hahnemühle. 

For color I used a couple shades of the

Dylusions Ink Sprays and a lot of water.

Yep. 

That's my signature move - lots of water.

And a heat gun to make rings, drips and runs. 

I love that this sheet is so large and it looks

beautiful! 

Because it was originally on a block of

paper - that means it is glued on all 4 sides - 

I was able to leave it attached to the block 

until it was completely dry. And it stayed flat. 

Yayayay!!!

I also uploaded this paper into the Procreate App

and tangled up a little underwater scene. 

Hahahahaha! 

I don't know where you'd have to go

to find a red and orange ocean,

but this is my underwater scene

and I'm sticking with it!

I used nebula, printemps, Indy Rella, 

ripped screen and a hybrid tangle I'm working on. 

I am really enjoying loading my backgrounds into 

the app and using them without actually drawing

on the original piece of art. That way I can use

the backgrounds again and again for other things.

Although I totally see myself tangling up this large

sheet of paper at some point. 

Hahnemühle has so many amazing types of paper

to draw or paint or print on. 

You can check them out at their website
