Some fun lettering on rocks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Last week I had some fun lettering on a few rocks I had picked up in the yard. The few accounts I had read by people about this seemed to indicate that it was difficult. It’s not.

I tried sumi ink (Moon Palace), gold ink (Spectralite), gold watercolors (pans), white ink (Dr. Martin’s), and gouache (Schmincke mixed with either extra gum arabic or glair; I didn’t keep track of which container was which).
