Beautiful! Can the watercolor blocks be used to create texture on fabric the same way that paint sticks can be used by rubbing over a texture underneath a fabric? Are the pigments permanent on if put on damp fabric?
Linda, these are water soluble, so they will dilute and spread when water is involved. That said, yes, once there is water involved they do become permanent after drying and heat setting.
