Shiny Stone Paper

Generously brayer dye base ink on heavy glossy paper (the paper skin will not be able to absorb all the ink, but you want it liberal for the treatment). Add water to Perfect Pearl Perfect Gold to form a creamy paint. With a very fine mist spray bottle, mist the entire paper. Work quickly and splatter or dab gold paint on with a brush randomly (don’t even think about being careful!). Sprits with a fine mist of water again. Manipulate the paper a little to make it start running. Now, crumple up a paper towel and dab lightly over the entire page to create veins and texture.

The samples below show variations in the veins and texture that can be achieved through this method.
