Add Salt
Water down your pigment on a palette and apply to the page. While its still wet sprinkle on some salt and let it dry. once dry, brsu the salt away to reveal a speckle texture effect.

Tye Dye Effect
Have some watered down ink ready in a pallette. Apply your first layer of colour to the page straight from the marker, then add a drop of water while the ink is still wet.
Let that bloom out, and while still wet add a dro of the watered down in from your palette to the middle. Once dry, you will be left with a tye dye type finish.
