Day 3 of the New Years Challenge

   I copied off the prompt early this morning, grabbed my inks and just did what popped in my head first.

  The challenge was to do something inside and outside of this shape, and inks were the suggested medium



  I used my black walnut ink, ink gall ink, and Winsor Newton watercolor inks  I am actually really happy with this one

    1. No what happened I took this photo when it was beginning to get daylight-I liked the look of it this way too. I had copied the image off on regular copy paper, and the inks all worked well on it. I really like this one allot-I didn't overthink it just did it haha thanks for the encouragement

    1. I'm not sure if it's a good thing I'm not on FB, but I guess it is a recognizable shape.

    2. the first thing I thought of when I saw this shape were those polish dolls that stack together small to large-but I knew I couldn't paint that--but someone did it looked just like those dolls
