If you’ve never heard of or used masking fluids with your watercolors and lettering, you’re missing out on some really amazing results that can be achieved. There are a lot of different types of masking fluid available, including liquids, pens, tape, and glues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simply start by using a masking pen or a brush with masking fluid to draw and define the area that you want to keep white. Then, as you paint over the area, the colors will lay over top of the fluid without staining the white paper underneath. Once everything has dried, you can use your fingers or an eraser to wipe away the masking fluid, revealing clean white lines underneath!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are some stunning examples of hand lettering created using masking fluids. You can use these fluids in so many different ways to create beautiful results! I especially love those who think outside of the box, using the masking fluids on alternative papers like the black paper below, or the fourth example by Balettering<\/em> on Instagram, who used a combination of the fluid and watercolor to create awesome looking letters!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope this post will inspire you to try out your own creations with masking fluid! Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
