Subtitled making vivid mixed-media fabric, they may as well call it, playtime for those of us who can't really paint. Using acrylic paint, fabric paint sprays and shoe polish for goodness sake, Alicia swipes, stamps and dribbles paint across the surface of the fabric or paper she is working on. Clearly a 'more is more fun' sort of girl, she aims to get as many techniques on the surface as possible.
For those who are looking to get into mixed media or just colouring the fabric surface, this is an easy way to do so. There is nothing she shows you that takes any fancy tool or any great skill, in fact the skill may be in when to shout "ENOUGH!".
I really enjoyed this DVD. I have been inspired to just grab a doily off the cake stand and spray a bit of paint through it. And finally, thank goodness, someone has shown me a fun way to use shoe polish!
I do love your reviews, honest to a fault. As I have an accumulation of shoe polish (I don't polish much anymore - What does that say about me?) if I'm ever in the mood to be truly creative, I'll check it out. jt
