What do you use to texture your paintings?

Just want to throw some ideas around!

I use paper, pollyfiller, the very expensive modelling paste, and string.

What do you use?

[beadsbydesign]

sand, salt, string, rope, plastic bags, scruntched foil, rags, any thing at all!

Splodgy thick white Acrylic paint - let it dry thoroughly and then paint on top with Watercolours. It does a lot of its own thing and the results can be quite exciting...! Nancy

PVA glue mixed with acrylic paint. I use black paint & neat PVA to get a leading effect like stained glass windows.
Grains, papier mache pulp, yarn, embroidery cotton, anything really.
