Not sure there is a set of instructions. I use a feather for putting in veins for marbling (pigeon's for preference). I think it is something you develop your own technique with (hold it by the quill, of course). The critical thing is thinning the paint enough so as not to clog or overload the filaments.Im looking for intructions on how to paint with feathers verses sponge?
I have seen this technique done before and they used a feather duster.
Use spray mount on the a sponge roller and arrange feathers on the roller.





Have your wall painted first. Then go thru a second time with the roller. Try to go thru only once otherwise the pattern may look too cluttered.





Another way is to stick your feathers on the wall first then paint over it. Make sure to make your paint thinner before painting. Or you can email me for renovation services :)
