Pink Ribbon Ink Art: Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Today, I wanted to show you four ink arts I made for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I made videos of all my ink arts. The long and short version of those videos are already up and about in Youtube. The short versions can only be found in my Tiktok. So, this is ideal for folks that prefer to see a video, instead of reading about my artwork. All my new paintings were made with Pixiss ink and paper. The paper is designed specifically for these types of inks. I took photos of both the wet...
Ink Art: Soul of a Blue Morpho and Peacock Butterfly
Today, I wanted to show you my latest ink art paintings. I got into painting butterflies again. This time I am using ink instead of watercolor. Ink paintings are a bit difficult to manage, but I am learning. Ink artist tend to lean more towards abstraction. With a bit of practice, I am getting into making more defined forms.

I was originally trying to make an...
Ink Art: Purple Heart and Green Heart Paintings
Today, I wanted to show you my latest ink art paintings. I was trying to do basic abstract shapes. So, I chose to make heart paintings of all the colors of the rainbow. I am exaggerating a bit.

I have enough paper to make 100 ink art paintings. So, you can expect to see more of these types of artworks in the near future. In both paintings,...
Ink Art: Pulsing Red Heart and Orange Yellow Emoji Hearts Paintings

In order to add a bit of interest to the painting, I used the colors blue and green for the empty spaces between the red pulses. Blue and Green are the split compliments of...
Blue Hearts in Golden Background Ink Art Painting
Today, I wanted to show you my latest ink art. It is just a simple painting. It features Blue hearts against a golden background. The Hearts had a lot of dots in the middle. I used Pixiss ink and paper. They combine well together. For the first time, I was forced to thin out the paints. I had added alcohol ink into the bottles in order to make more golden ink. The little bottle was almost halfway done. Adding rubbing alcohol saved me the trouble of having to get more ink. This is something to keep in mind if you...
