So what is resist art? This is a technique using layers to shape invisible designs or patterns. The artist uses tape in this project that is resistant to paint, then paints over the covered area with a layer of watercolor. The color from the paint will stick to the surrounding paper area, letting the resistant tape layer be untouched. Resist painting is a common art form used with young kids as it can be incredibly flexible in its design BUT great for ALL ages.
We love this watercolor and tape resist art because of how simple it is, and we hope you do too! So let’s get started.
Supplies Used:
- Watercolor Paper
- Watercolor paints
- Washi tape
- Watercolor paintbrush
- Water
Stained Glass Style Resist Art with Tape Directions:
- Tape down the watercolor paper with your washi tape on all the edges as well as the entire paper to the designs you would like. There are no rules!
- Next, paint the sections in different colors with your watercolor paint. Let dry for 15 minutes.
- Sprinkle the page with light blue paint to create a raindrop effect. Let dry for 15 minutes.
- Now, remove the tape and you have a beautiful piece of art that resembles a stained glass window.
