Sunshine

Video available on my Patreon.


Day 27: sunshine. Like writing with liquid candy. I love when I get to post that real time super satisfying footage for a prompt too. I could watch this over and over again.

Downstream

Finished another abstract texture painting. It’s called “Downstream” and I’m in love. This one came over me like a torrential river and wouldn’t let go. I kept trying to decipher the purpose but I came to the realization that this one symbolized giving in and giving up on the idea of ever finding a shoreline. It represents the counter to a sink or swim mentality and instead opting to float on.

36″ by 24″ acrylic and mixed media on canvas. Just need to take some high quality photos and get it ready to hang.

(Used my DIY texture paste, sand, heavy body acrylic, glass beads, fiber gel, and mica flake paint for various types of texture.)

Black As Night

Day 25: black as night. The most unforgiving color ink I own. It also dries glossy which is not fun to photograph when you just want a high contrast deep black. I did todays practice with walnut ink and I just wish there was a black that worked like it… does that make sense to anyone?

Silver Linings

Day 24: silver linings. This ink didn’t want to flow as well as yesterdays homemade ink. Could be the texture of the paper?
