Molding Paste; is a thickening gel that increases the body of the paint, reducing its flow. Mix molding paste with the paint or use it pure by applying it in several layers with a spatula on the surface of the paper prior to painting.
Texture medium contains fine particles that add texture to the watercolor. It can be applied directly onto the paper or mixed with watercolors first.
I use molding paste on occasion to add texture to paintings. On the ref painting 342, I used it to mold the rocks on the cliff and for the pure sky colors. This added emphasis to the paintings. Here is how I do it
- Prepare paper 140 lbs coarse side with some prior humidity and before dry it.
- Apply a light molding paste blend it with any watercolor (I use Light Molding Paste) with a palette knife, or any other preferred tool, to the areas of the paper you wish to have textured.
- Allow to dry thoroughly.
- Paint with additional watercolors as you normally would. Paint right over the molding paste and fade with sponge, paper, napkins add or take away wáter as you require to complete the idea
- When complete, spray with a fixative
