    Watercolour and ink late night doodle

    I was up until 2.30am this morning trying out a bit of a new idea. I’m not really sure on it, and I was pretty knackered for work this morning, but playing is always worth it!

    An older and slightly more manic painting. There’s something about it I really like, but I have no idea why. It won’t allow me to throw it away! Ink and watercolour powder on watercolour paper A4 #abstract #abstractart #artist #painting #artoftheday#abstractexpressionism #abstractpainting

    A big splosh of colour on a very cold and grey day. It’s meant to be getting colder over the week, am I going to go brighter? Get the sunglasses out, I’m going neon!

    Not Working on One At a Time

    I seem to have started 12 new pieces this weekend. I think it’s because I don’t like wasting paint, so I’ll use up on another piece of paper, then next thing I’ve trapped myself in the corner of the room with wet half fished pieces blocking the way to the door. It’s fun to experiment…

  • Red and Black Abstract Painting

    Red and Black Abstract Painting

    Feeling as if this one might have finished herself, though I may check again later to see. It’s been good to be a bit more spontaneous again. Though hopefully soon I can flick and drip paint with no inhibitions, or carpet to worry about. Ink brush pen and acrylic paints on A4 watercolour paper #abstract…

  • Work in progress! Inks and Acrylics

    Work in progress! Inks and Acrylics

    Some pieces that are work in progress. Acrylic paint and ink, so far. It was great to get a bit messier, though a little resistant as I’m still not in a place of my own yet, and we all know how hard it is to get ink out of the carpet… And off the wall……

  • Rip it up and start again

    Rip it up and start again

    This piece wasn’t working as one, so it was fun to tear it into 4 and experiment with different pieces of it. Trying to explore more muted colours that I don’t usually gravitate to.

  • Mini Art in Confined Spaces

    Mini Art in Confined Spaces

    Some mini pieces. I don’t have my own space to paint at the moment, so I am very conscious of paint splatters on carpets and walls, so I am working with shapes and being more mindful. It’s actually really good for me as I was a bit too wild. These are acrylic paints and ink…

    Anyone else had a heavy day with the paints and pens?

    Had a bit of a fight with this one today. I was sticking with the nature cell vibe last night, and things were fine. But today… Oh, today, she did not want to play. That’s why it ended up with the black ink on top. I do like the colours though, so it’s not getting…

    Sewing it Up? Using Yarn on Watercolour

    This piece kept calling for something else, so after working with string on another idea I thought I’d sew some orange yarn to the piece. Now I feel like I’ve thrown Shredded Wheat cereal over the piece  I do like it though! And easier to see than metal wire I’ve used previously Ink brush…

    When You Go Too Far With Ink?

    Good morning friends! Thought I’d lost this piece when I added the black lines to the side, but the experimenting worked, and after a bit of white pen (I love the Gelly Roll pens so much!) It really worked for me. What do you think? Too heavy on the black ink this time? Ink brush…
