Artist inspiration, acrylic inks and watercolour painting.

Описание: In this video , I show you some of my finished paintings and talk about the inspiration behind them. I love painting both watercolour and acrylic works on paper. We chat about acrylic inks and I do a few demonstrations on how I like to incorporate them into my work.

We pull a card from my "Art Poetry" for insights and inspiration oracle deck, and also from my 2024 Fodder collage calendar. I share a book, "How to Be More Tree", and I read a page for insights. I also paint an intuitive abstract watercolour background, but it remains unfinished. I plan to go back to it with mark making once it's dry.

When I do my swatches, I like to clean my brush in the shape of my brush stroke on a 98 lb watercolour piece of paper. I love using this paper once it has dried for new paintings/projects.
