To sponge on color, pour 3 to 4 colors on separate sections of a palette. Pick up these colors with a round synthetic sponge, overlapping the color on the sponge. Sponge directly onto bisque or basecoated bisque. Move the sponge so you do not get a pattern from the sponge. If the color is not what you had in mind, you can always sponge on color again after drying. Stippling color is done with a #8 round or #5 for smaller areas. Load brush with one or two colors and pat off excess paint. Pounce tip of brush on desired area in repeated strokes. Gradually add more color, stippling one color into the next to achieve blended shading.
