Hello everyone it has been a while since I posted, but I have been working on some arty things. I am trying to get into the habit of acting everyday. No one as to see it, I just have to do it. I have also been watching some youtube videos and learning how to use some of the products I have.
In the last couple of weeks I saw a few videos on Alcohol Inks and Copic Markers. The videos were by Barbara Joggles of Joggles.com and Diana Trout, an amazing artist and teacher. I have to tell you I am in Love. The randomness of the effects is just so yummy. The posts below are of glossy playing cards, Yupo paper painted with Copic Markers and Yupo Paper painted with Adirondack Alcohol inks. What is Yupo paper you ask? It is a synthetic watercolor paper. It is plastic and as a result, the alcohol ink will bloom when dropped or painted on a shiny substrate. On the Playing cards I used a combination of drippage and putting ink on a makeup sponge and dabbing on the card.
This is just the beginning.....I feel like a mad scientist as I will be trying more ways of painting over the next few weeks. Watch this space.....
