Glue, Glitter and paint
Blue, green and black
Spiralling round
Like a maze on the ground
Metallic paint
Set with sparkles
Like an ancient mound
The path wound around
Playing with art
Staying happy.

Jupiter in a spin
I’m getting used to a new collage app. Learning all the new plot twists (I mean the tools in it). The main irritation are the in app ads. Get used to it, I won’t upgrade and I won’t buy anything. I am app resistant!
This was a photo of the South Pole of Jupiter that I painted and decided to turn into a symmetrical collage. Matching up the pattern was difficult because it wasn’t similar along the edges, but I did my best.
Digital doodles
Spring and flower themed digital doodles using ArtRage oils. Then edited in Photodirector for one of the four images and layout app to create symmetry for all four. Finally I stitched them together in layout and have published the variations on my Instagram account. I could imagine this as a woollen blanket.
Seven years
Seven years ago I created this. I can’t remember exactly how. But it just popped up on my Facebook memories. It’s definitely my style, pattern and colours. I do love the idea of creating something like this, completely abstract using some elements from nature. I don’t know if there are enough pixels to make it work as a print. I’m not sure how many dpi it is.
Sequins
Sequins, shiny and bright
Sparkle and twinkle
In the light
Plastic circles
Dragon scales?
Are they magic
No, just pale
Imitations of fish skin
Gleaming and glittering in
The bright
Light
Tonight.
Countour lines
Draw multiple curved lines, add shading. Voilà! You can almost make a three dimensional image. I think this looks like folds in cloth. It’s an interesting optical illusion. The shading makes it look more rounded. It’s the first one of these I’ve done for a while. I used to draw things like this digitally on my computer, but this was drawn with metallic and matt felt pens.. I think it’s quite a good abstract image.
Feathery frost
Feathers in frost,
How crystals grow
Waving and curling
See the cold flow
Other designs
Jack Frost can draw
Painting his marks
They are sublime.
Vase
Today’s #bandofsketchers prompt, vase. I drew a vase in wax crayons and felt pens. I was hoping to get more of a wax resist effect but when that didn’t work I drew some outlines around the patches of colour on the vase. I also put it through photodirector to change the texture.
Reflected
Digital abstract in ArtRage oils that I did five years ago. The centres is meant to be a metallic, shiny egg shaped object, and the outside the pattern that is seen on the object. It doesn’t quite work but I think you can see a contrast between the sharp lines of the centre, and the softer outer lines. I saw this today as a memory on my Facebook page.
Digital splodges
I have to play. My phone has a dotty tool and something like cracked paint, so I combined the two, then distorted and textured it in my Photodirector app. I could try and change and adapt it to something else. I will think about it. I also duplicated the unfiltered image and posted it to Instagram. Fun.
