Watercolour and Ink Experiments...

Okay this was interesting because I forgot how much I love working with ink and because I realised how bad I am at using watercolours. Here's what I got up to:


The next job is playing around with different frames over different areas of the images, flipping them round and seeing what could be what. I really love the spindly-ness of the ink and the way water trickling down the page effects the paint on it, also the way the ink seeps across wet paper is gorgeous, so I'm pretty psyched about seeing where this goes next! Onwards and upwards! :D

  1. ooh - fab! I think you should invest in a marbling kit too!

    And take a look at these: how Edmund Dulac are these?

    I'd love to see you combining some of these into textures for your undersea-ness!
