Journal Page Head in Clouds

Latest video.  I was feeling a little out of sorts.  Painting cleared my head.  I love the Golden High Flow Acrylics I got for my birthday.  So drippy!  A little bit goes quite a long ways.  I'm really enjoying using them.  So far, this is the third application I've used them for.  Two journal pages, "Head in the Clouds" and "A Beautiful Mess", and my as of yet, untitled abstract, which Patrons may name before I release the painting publicly in all its drippy, texturey, glimmery glory.  It is like a cranberry got smashed and gilded.  Lovely!

Inktoberfest

It's October, but for artists, we might know it as Inktober.  A 31 day art challenge where we strive to create new inked art every day for the entire month of October.

I'll be joining the challenge this year.  You can follow along on my Patreon, Facebook event or on Pinterest.  I've been preparing all week for this month long undertaking.  I have papers cut to size and an art journal being prepped for the arting to begin.  Here's a sneak peek onto my art table....

Papers cut to size, and an art journal being gesso'd for arting.

So many, many pens.  They've all been checked and ink is flowing!

Metallic and white gel pens for dark paper.

Let's do this!

Be sure to check out many great artists participating this year!  Facebook ---> #Inktober
