Here in Australia, I had to buy it in a health food store, but you can probably get it at the drug store. I think your parrot painting is awesome!<br />AWC Perth Updateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01274500598803821686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1436421032239107606.post-72692939209972248842011-06-04T03:17:09.557-04:002011-06-04T03:17:09.557-04:00I just read an article about these and it claimed ...I just read an article about these and it claimed they don't bleed onto the dry fabric surrounding, only blend with wet fabric.

I couldn't wait until they were all done to play with the background (grin). It didn't work very well -- the diluted paint seeped right under it. I may not have ironed it on too well, or maybe it didn't work because of the wetness -- I won't bother with it again. I think it would be a really good idea to try Presist or soy wax.Karen Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00471057380298714556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1436421032239107606.post-30386036075361073602011-03-22T16:31:58.043-04:002011-03-22T16:31:58.043-04:00These inks look very interesting.

And parrots are brilliant! <br /><br />Have you thought of possibly using a resist like Presist or maybe soy wax to keep the background separate from the main subject areas? If the resist was put in place, then the background painted, then resist removed, you'd still be free to paint the parrots/main subject in those glorious colors and not have to worry about the background bleeding. I'm amazed at your wonderful control of the bleeding without using a barrier of any sort.

The eyes are gorgeous, so this seems to be a good ink for the most part for fabric painting.<br />It seems like all of them have their quirks, and it is odd that the pearlescent one flaked off. Must be a different composition...<br />Great work! Really enjoyed this!<br /><br />XXOO~~♥<br />AnneAnne Huskey-Lockardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01642632328404951486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1436421032239107606.post-57966440290564655692011-03-19T16:38:46.825-04:002011-03-19T16:38:46.825-04:00Thanks Rosalita!

I looked up the website you linked to and found out there is a place near where I am going next weekend (Colchester, VT) in Burlington. I just may have to go take a look. Your parrots are wonderful.ROSALITAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07226055221560263430noreply@blogger.com
