How to do Kolrosing



How to do Kolrosing

1. Cut out and glue pattern to the wood using a washable glue stick.

2. Cut the lines of the pattern. Start from the inside and work out.

3. Peel off what you can of the pattern.
The rest of the pattern will come off with a damp paper towel.

4. Apply Powder to the cut marks.
Apply past and wipe off with a tissue.
( I use my finger and rub the past into the power and cut marks, then clean.)

5. Cut the lines deeper and wider as you see fit. This is a matter of artistic style and skill.
Powder and clean from time to time to see your progress.

6. Detail and shading will improve your artwork. Study others art work for ideas.

7. Take your time and enjoy your work.

8. Apply a final coat of past.  Wait for the past to “setup” then buff it out with a soft cloth.

Share your work with others.
