Dion Dior's Twinkling Discoveries E-Course Please note that, I am not an affiliate of Dion Dior or Twinkling H20's by Lumin Arte. I share my simple notes and my experience (a snapshot) from the course and medium used. I have just completed "Part 1 - Mastering Twinks" by Dion Dior and am happy to say the course was such great value (I paid $75 Sep 2013). In summary: - Delivered over 5 weeks, accessible for 1 year - Jam packed with clear and concise video instructions on painting & drawing techniques. - Supplied PDF documents. - Numerous projects - An online community, in which Dion interacts during the 5 week course and an on going Facebook Group. Product: Twinkling H20's are shimmery water based paints made from mica (a shiny silicate material derived from granite, crystals and rocks) that activates with water. Their behaviour is pretty much same as water colour paints, the main difference is that they have a shimmery finish and the colours are just so vibrant and beautiful. They are very reasonably priced and can be purchased from Lumin Arte at: http://www.dreamingcolor.com/twinkling-h2os/ Here are some of the projects that I managed to complete (there were more projects available in the course) :
Note: if you are interested in sampling some of Stillman and Birns paper, just email samples@stillmanandbirn.com, they will send out a sample pack (for a limited time). More information about Dion Dior and other Twinkling H20 classes are available on : www.diondior.com I now look forward to experimenting more with Twinkling H20's and look forward to other courses provided from Dion.
