Once you have your clay, take a little piece and just add some black paint (O had black acrylic paint on hand so I used that) et then mix it (in a twisting motion) carfeul not tu “over mix”, you want to keep streaks of paint that will keep mixing as you flatten your clay. If the clay is sticking to your hands, let it dry a few minutes before continuing.
