Aurora Borealis Ink Art: Blue Mourning Chill Paintings
Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)
I made new Aurora Borealis ink art. This time I used my white paper. I wanted to try to vary the feel of it.
I wasn’t certain if it was going to work better with black or white paper.
The first two paintings I made it with black paper. The ones featured in this blog were done with white.
The papers and inks I used where provided by Pixiss.
You can find those art supplies in my Artsy Sister’s Choice collection. Just look for the product that are next to bjd dolls.
Let us move along, shall we. In both paintings, I oversaturated the paper with rubbing alcohol.
I then added blue ink into it to create the chilly morning sky. By diluting the ink with alcohol, I was able to get a softer blue hue.
Plus, it saved me a ton of ink. With the background done, it was time to paint the aurora borealis.
In the first painting, I went for a simple cascade of colors. I added a bit of metallic ink here and there to add some shine.
In the second painting, I went for two waves of colors. I cascaded first the top wave before developing the bottom one.
Once I was finished, I used the spray bottle to create stars.
I also personally dotted a few bigger stars. I think it came out rather decent.
I also made videos of my ink artworks. You can check them out in my Youtube and Tiktok Artsy Sister channels.
