My new favorite toy: a Fuseworks microwave kiln.

Easy antique wash for distressed artwork.
I make “subway” or typographic artwork on a fairly regular basis. Â I am not too precise about the process, which is why I love the, um, distressed look. Â Distressing artwork that is less than perfect covers a multitude of sins and makes it a “I meant to do that” finished product. Here are a few […]
