Then painting the whole banner and having no problems. Then DROPPING A WET BRUSH ON IT.

The black lines are made with" Pebeo Gutta". They come in different colors including clear if you don't want lines. The paint I use is "Dye-na-flow". I use 100% silk lining. The trick is to get a weight that is not too opaque, yet not so heavy that the gutta will not penetrate the fabric. If even the smallest void happens with the gutta resist, the colors will bleed into other areas. I buy my supplies at Opus. The black lines are made with” Pebeo Gutta”.
