Painted this late last night. Should have turned off the light, but I picked up a brush instead. Really happy with how it turned out. And today four more came into being. I am ahead if I continue to paint each day.

Such fun to splash water, and splash colors, and let them mingle!

 

FUNdamentals of Alcohol Ink E-Course

Sandy Sandy has a new class starting this week and I am so excited to be taking part! The FUNdamentals of Alchohol Ink E-Course is a four-week course, with more than two dozen demos!  I was hesitant to sign up, and commit to it at the same time as the challenge. But I couldn’t resist. I LOVE Sandy’s work with inks!

I can create at my own pace, and will have access to the lessons for a full year. I have worked with inks just a little on Yupo. I am really excited to learn more about the medium. Take a peek at the links, Sandy has some short videos that show what we will be up to!

My site might be up and down this morning, They are replacing some “trunk equipment” in the area. Don’t ask me what that means. Tech talk. I am just thankful I was finally able to get my post up!

Happy creative Monday to you!

 

Take a look at day 12 on Leslie Seata’s 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge!
My Pinterest board for the event is bursting with almost 600 works of art!

Such a fluke. My name was chosen. I can’t say I never win anything – anymore. I won a Sandy Sandy ORIGINAL Friendship Feather painting. It is gorgeous.

Feathers hold a special place with me. I am sure a lot of you would say that as well. Emily Dickinson wrote a poem that comes to mind, here is the first part:

Hope is the thing with feathers~

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,

Isn’t that beautiful?

I have been an admirer of Sandy’s art for a while now. I love her brilliant colors, and the fluidity of her strokes. Sandy is a master with Yupo and watercolor. She also works with alcohol ink. She just makes it look so effortless.

Learning from the best – Spring in NY.

 

 

Sandy is so generous, sharing tips and tricks on her blog. She gives demos regularly, and gives fine art lessons. Visit her website for more information on upcoming events.

Receiving a piece of art from Sandy is a blessing to me. It is a chance to see the masters work up close and personal. Not only did Sandy grace me with a signed and matted Friendship Feather, she also included her tips on working with Yupo, and a sample pack for practice.
