PracticePreprinted paper towels or napkins are great for practicing linework. To create dimensional lines, hold bottle like a pencil and gently hold tip to paper surface, squeezing and moving bottle simultaneously over preprinted lines.  LineworkFor raised linework: Hold bottle at an angle, allowing more paint to escape and pull across paper.
For a flatter line hold the bottle straight up and down, allowing less paint to escape.  Design workTo make a comma shape, hold bottle straight up and down. Squeeze and pull toward you and squeeze out a dot of color, pulling it toward you and quickly releasing pressure. Paint will naturally form a graduated tip.  Making heartsA comma can turn into a heart by adding a second comma as a mirror image with tips touching.  StoringReplace bottle in convenient CapStand to keep air bubbles flowing to back of bottle.
