Stencil Brushes
Two sets of Stencil Brushes arrived in today’s mail. They are natural bristle, square cut and small enough to work with the ˝-inch stencils I recently cut for the 52-Set Project.
I toyed with the idea of tracking down an original stencil brush, the type with the paint reservoir handle, but they would be much too large for such a small sized stencil and with the oil board being close to 1/32-inch thick, I would likely have issues getting paint easily into the cut-outs without serious risk of too much paint suddenly blobbing under the oil board.
From what I have read on the current crafting media, it is far better to use very little paint and build up the density you need in several layers.
Fortunately, I have enough ‘goofed’ oil board stencils to practice on until I get the process right.
