I wanted to make another journal page for Erika's theme Red for Art Journal Journey-link in my side bar.
I am really enjoying working with my inks, both my own botanical inks and Winsor Newton's watercolor inks. The journal page is all inks.
My inspiration page on top -I changed the violet flowers to red
Love the red.

DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteLove the journal page and the red flowers! Take care, enjoy your weekend.
I agree-smiles-next up is mandarin orange peel ink suppose to get a pretty yellow
ReplyDeleteI love how you are exploring and discovering new inks and ways to make them.
ReplyDeleteThank you-this has been a very fun journey I love the look of the inks in a painting after they dry too
Delete...Kathy, I enjoy photographing broken rail fences. Thank for stopping by my blog.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome Tom, I love broken fences in the country especially
DeleteYour inks are lovely an so is your painting. Look how much you have 'improved.' I have that in quotes because I have loved your art from the beginning. But I see that you are becoming more sure of yourself. It shows in your art.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Debra, I appreciate your comment very much-You are right I am feeling more confident with my paintings-I have been telling myself-to just do it and see what happens haha
DeleteThat turned out so lovely Kathy! You did such a great job. Love the color of the inks too.. I just watched a tutorial on a landscape piece by that lady i like to follow.. Diane Antone i think is her name.. You might like it.. Here's the link ~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdkPnyxYMg4 I think water color is very much about ' See what happens'.. Hugs! deb
ReplyDeletethanks so much Deb, and I will check out the link
DeleteAmazing things are happening with your magic inks. I love the reds and look forward to the time when we have flowers blooming outside our doorsteps. Hilltop Post
ReplyDeleteGood morning Mary, I think most of us are sooo looking forward to spring blooms-it has been a rough winter
DeleteThis may be my favorite journal page yet. I love the flowers you drew, I love the texture on the gate/fence, and I love the way you pulled it all together. Of course, having spring flowers while I am looking at a gloomy day makes it even more exciting. Thanks for this beautiful journal page and equally, thanks for sharing it with us at Art Journal Journey using Erika's theme.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Elizabeth-sorry it's cloudy there we have sunshine-finally today
DeleteThe sun finally broke out about 30 minutes ago. My spirits are lifted, too.
DeleteI am so happy you got sunshine-we have had it all day, and wind for a change too. quite a few boats on the lake today too we are 59 degrees f right now a heat wave haha
Deleteoops no wind

DeleteGood morning, thank you so much Chris
