Masking Fluid is the normal name for it...
...or Art Masking Fluid. The company "Winsor&Newton" have a very good one.
Rubber cement would actually work, as long as you don't leave it on too long. And its isn't to strong.

Very helpful! I have no idea what frisket is though...what is it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Masking Fluid, is a liquid Latex, when it dries on paper it stays rubbery, so it can be painted around and on without paint getting where it is, and then with an eraser or even finger it can be removed so the lines are nice and clear.

when you do the individual areas like the face do you lay frisket down then too?

Exactly what does the masking/frisket do? I don't doubt that it's probably important to the painting, I just don't understand its use.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is a liquid latex, it dries where applied, and then repels the paint. In essence it keeps it from the areas you apply it on. Making you able to paint the background easily and fast, or in this case with lots of water, without you accidentally getting a stroke of paint into the foreground area, or the colors running into the area you don't want it in. Does that help?

Thanks so much for this tut! Even though the steps are somewhat simple no-one ever showed them to me...
Your process is way easier and looks better than the one I was using.. (doing everything while it was wet.. lols)

when you spread water, do you worry if it gets spread on other part then the current one, or does allowing that cause bleeding into unwanted palces? also, how much water do you put down? puddles? a dripping brush? or just a moderately wet one? thanks! <3

The masking fluid/frisket keeps the water/paint from flowing into unwanted areas.
As to the amount she uses, I can't answer that for you. I'm just a helper.

This is the most helpful tutorial I've ever seen yet! Maybe I might try it one of these days. *sigh* I miss painting. It's been months since I've last touched a brush. TT^TT Hey, maybe you could try a tutorial on anatomy or something like that. But it's up to you. Hope to see more of these from you.

What is the difference between the two?

I believe the ingredients are the only thing different.
Odd yes, but different formulas are often found around.

Water color paper.
Haha a paper that is thick usually helps, cause it won't buckle when it gets wet, and get all wavy, then again you can tape your picture down to stop that from happening.
