Hi everyone, this is my first post. I've found this forum very informative and entertaining and thought I could benefit from some helpful suggestions.
I am trying to create a sort of antique looking background for my drawings, much like weathered parchment paper. I generally prepare a watercolor or acrylic wash, and draw over it, but I'm finding it challenging to create an antique looking wash/background using watercolor or acrylics? I want the wash to have that old, worn,faded and cracked texture and feel, like you see in really old drawings or parchment.Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
