Dreaming Away
Here is a new approach to my water media.
I have just joint another artist website called http://www.wetcanvas.com
where artists get all sorts of challenges, very exiting!
From all the pictures that we could choose from was one photo of a sleeping cat which I decided to have a go at. I thought I would make a different approach by using my old set of W&N "Liquid Acrylic Ink" and "Illu Color"
I wanted to go completely from the usual oil and watercolor approach.
My method in few words were as follows:
I sprayed water on a 140lb not watercolor paper, then I poured some yellows, orange and carefully added a little of the sepia for shadows . While this was drying I started using a pen and a brush to do some glazing and create some texture.
It has been a long time since I have played with these mediums and I was really enjoying myself.
I hope you enjoy my friends.
This is excellent, Steinunn!! The whole painting actually looks soft and dreamy!
