How do I add texture to my background?

If you want to work on a more textured background, Amsterdam offers a great solution: modeling paste! With Amsterdam modeling paste, you can make relief backgrounds that are suitable to work on with acrylic paints. The modeling paste can be used by itself or in combination with Amsterdam acrylic colors. You can mix the colors with the modeling paste in any ratio. Do note, however, that the paste is pigmented with Titanium White, so your color will turn out lighter!
