I've been using various paints (watercolour, gouache, acrylic) and various mediums (gum arabic, aquapasto, gloss gel medium) on (paper, canvas, gesso) to paint repeating patterns. It's interesting how much experimentation you have to do to learn about a particular paint or combination of paint and medium. Sometimes I think combinations will have _more_ of an effect - I was hopeful that ink on paper below gloss medium acrylic would be more obvious, but did not come out the way I expected.
