I think the technique is called 'Wet on Wet' painting. Stumbled across the tools whilst looking for a silicone wet tool.

That bloke with the afro, is he the guy who ends his shows with 'Goodbye, my friend'?

What a nice bloke. Looks like a cross between Leo Sayer and Disco Stu!

..... you go out and buy art stuff; canvas, paints, brushes, funny hat...

... you spend half the day poncing about with paints, looking all thoughtful...

.... and you soon find out that you're s***te at painting and your sunset scene with beach hut resembles a neuclear holocaust as depicted by a 5 year old!

What a waste of a day! Stupid bloke with his stupid hair and stupid 'Good bye, my friend' ****! Gah! now i'm all mad and i've wasted a day and i've got paint on my new jeans because i was in too much of a hurry to change......

grumble grumble grumble.....
