As Bonnie Green was saying to Wendy Apgar:
 BG> Have you tried acrylic paints? I use them for tole 
 BG> painting, but have come across patterns done on paper, that 
 BG> also use acrylic paints..they might be to thick for you, 
 BG> but just water them down....
 BG> Put a small amount onto a pallete, them add  water, till it 
 BG> becomes really watery, and try that.
 I bought acrylic paints recently to use with the sponges. It
 will probably be a question of figuring out how much water
 to add to them in order to get the kind of images that I
 want.
 I also bought some acrylic paint to use on my car when
 I have the kids use stencils to pain butterflys.
 For that I probably won't be having them water the paint
 down at all.
