New paintings and regular art updates.
Set yourself a rule. Draw dots, draw round them, turn the paper over and draw round where the ink has bled through the paper. Turn the paper back and add more, back and forth. Decide whether you just want to add lines, or if as I have, change directions. Once you have drawn the lines fill in some of the lines with a different colour. Keep building up layers if you want. Playing with different ideas but using rules can create interesting patterns.
Monoprint patterns in black acrylic, randomly cut up then layered. Photograph adjusted in the photodirector app on my phone. It feels a bit like layers of celtic knotwork I think. Maybe I should glue pieces down so that they can lift up and reveal different layers.
A self portrait, using a self portrait photograph then using a texture filter by photodirector. Finally I used a flood fill to lighten the surrounding sections. I never know what is going to happen when I start. But something emerges. Something changes. And I end up with a picture that interests me.
Well I had to play. Changed hues, used a blue flood fill. Made the fish shiny, made it glint. Art is fun, I can’t help myself. When I can’t do art I don’t know what I will do. Also I suppose it could represent pisces. I might do more…
Waiting fot the green to grow
Looking for the water flow
Abstract colours
Leafy feeling
Are your colours
At all appealing?
Glossy green,
And deep blue
Lots of subtle colour
Hue.
Digital doodled
Drawing a tree
Or a man?
Mark making fun
Ideas on screen
Thinking allowed
With colours
And patterns
Experience experiment
Just because
I combined
These pictures,
A little owl appeared
To cheer my day.
I hope he
Cheers yours
Too!
Just a play around with textures and colours using a negative image of a cat then several flood fills and textures to get the rippled effect. I think it’s still readable as a cat… I placed the rainbow flood fill towards the top and chose the colours so it looks a bit like a sunset.
Grainy, blurry photo of my female cat. I had a printmaking kit delivered and I’ve just taken it out of the box so I left it there for the cats. It’s dark in here as I’m saving electricity and just have a couple of lamps on. I don’t need much light.
She’s a beautiful, delightful cat, mother of at least four kittens that we rehomed. She was pregnant when we took her in as a rescue cat but we got her spayed and she has lots of fun now. Her latest trick now is chasing my dressing gown belt. I’ll be walking through the kitchen and have to stop because she’s caught it with her claws!
