Happy New Year! I have a collection of clips of our family Christmas - our day out to Tyntesfield National Trust property near Bristol, and visiting family. I've mixed that up with footage I filmed earlier in the year of testing lightfastness of all my ink sprays - Tim Holtz Distress spray stains; Distress oxide sprays; Ranger Dylusions and others. If you're thinking about using ink sprays in your art, then this video is for you! If you'd like to see the results in detail, please join my newsletter to receive the link to that video, coming soon! https://helenhobden.substack.com/ I also see if I can create my own paint spray with lightfast liquid watercolour - Dr P H Martin Hydrus.
