This week has been incredibly busy with medical visits.So for Paint Party Friday I fell back into dropping inks on a wet sheet and blowing the colors around with air from a drinking straw. Then after drying the sheet, I found areas that looked like flowers and leaves and outlined them in white gel pen (photo 1). To finish off this piece, I went to my Photoshop Elements and inverted the colors (photo 2). It may be a while before I can visit around, but I will definitely see what the other Paint Party Friday artists have been up to. Please forgive my meager offering this week.
And here is a shoe I've drawn in my sketchbook. Maybe another painting in progress.
Ahhh, ink is such great therapy:-) I really like how yo picked out the flowers and enjoyed the ink's flow!
ReplyDeleteWow these are gorgeous Faye.

Have a wonderful weekend my friend.

ReplyDeleteBlowing ink around sounds like it could be fun! Especially if you are lucky enought to find flowers hiding there when you are done.
ReplyDeleteFaye I love the colours and effect on your ink blowing painting and shoe sketch
ReplyDeleteYour sketch of shoe sketch is great too.
btw I have to confess it was easy to make the doll... just paper clay around some scrumpled up paper, a bit of masking tape and thats it! But thank you for your kind words :)

Nothing like messin' with ink! Hope your next week will be easier. I love that soe, too! Valerie
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful! Such beautiful colors and so inspiring to me to try the watercolor drop-in effect with intuitive drawing afterward. It is like finding a picture in the clouds that we used to do as kids. I love the reversed colors, too. I hope you get all medical issues under control quickly, lots of love coming your way from the universe.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I really love how this turned out. Such a natural abstract process.
