April Theme: Color Safari (Exploring Inks and Paints)
April 25
Art Challenge: Inks
Journal Prompt: Before the Ink is Dry
Played with the Derwent Inktense color blocks again by laying down some color with red, yellow,and orange semi-circles. Brushed over with water. Sprayed with homemade ink spray and let the ink run, then blew it to the edges with a straw.
Walked away to let that dry and then decided to stamp a pattern in the still wet areas and press onto dry areas. Let that dry overnight. Today I stamped my carved inkygoddess stamps and a carved paintbrush. Added a torn Chinese dictionary page that my son had painted. Journaled with a watercolor pencil and spritzed with water. Blotted the top journaling with a cloth and let the water drip and run with the bottom piece of writing.
I want to try that technique.
