it's not a sin to doctor a bit.via warp painting, a weaving warp.the first 20 cms were too yellowy, i was expecting more of a lime green.after the weft color change, the base color will be the greenish yellow,things were still not satisfactory.out came the very last remnants of my beloved sennelier peintex inks and a sponge brush. they both performed as expected. a side note on peintex;wonder why sennelier discontinued them .the color range was excellent and so was their performance.every two years during my pilgrimage to lausanne for the tapestry biennial i would stopover in lyon ate like a princess and bought my peintex bottles. both the biennial and peintex are long gone and my friends in geneva have moved away.it was jolly great while it lasted.
intervention.as i'm weaving with two colors one of them changing maybe i could add a color change in the warp paint as well.
this is a weaving while singing project, meaning no stress just enjoyment. my regular thin yarns are testing, to say the least.
