Painting last night led only to complete disaster. I have three alcohol ink, and two acrylic pieces of yuck as proof. Oh well…

Today I started watching videos on working with alcohol ink. And after a couple of hours… finally I created something that I don’t have to be embarrassed about showing.

This was created on canvas. Wait, canvas? With alcohol ink? I saw a video where ink was used over a gesso base. I have two of these tiny canvases, and I thought, what could it hurt?

Here it is in the teeny-tiny fame that came with it. Too cute right? Whew, that is all I have to say. Now I can catch up on visiting the other artists blogs!

The final addition to this was a layer of copper. After adding texture, I just wasn’t happy. I applied the copper with a sea sponge, and voilà! Done. Whew!

Here is a look at the pattern created by the sponge. It is delicate and lacy. Pretty.  The warm deep tones, mixed with the light of the copper brought a favorite poem to mind.

Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou. Listen to her read it here. Even her voice was phenomenal!
