Watercolor Self Portrait Paintings: Sonaly Gandhi and Nina Tokhtaman Valetova Style
Above, you can see my latest watercolor self-portraits. I like to post them in pairs. These two painters are grouped together because they have similar styles. Gandhi does squares patterns, while Valetova does psychedelic patterns. I am first going to rant about the Gandhi style painting. Gandhi is a West Bengal, Hindu painter. She makes contemporary art and pop art. She always adds grid pattern to all her subjects. I chose to imitate her art because of this butterfly painting. I like painting butterflies. So, doing this self-portrait was just the excuse I needed to paint more butterflies. I used...
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...
Neon Dutch Pouring Flower Art
Today, I wanted to show you my latest pouring painting. It was done with neon colors provided by Gencrafts. I am going to post a photo of the acrylic set I used to make the painting. I am a big fan of unconventional colors. I find it boring that paints use traditional colors. I like this set because it has Barbie pink. Getting that nice strong, pink hue is a bit of a bother to mix. So, it is convenient that this set already has the Barbie Pink color already mixed. The first thing I did was prepare my wood...
Hollow Knight Norman Rockwell Painting Parody
I got around to making a new Hollow knight fanart. This one is a painting parody of a Norman Rockwell painting. It is not a well-known work, but I like it. It features a boy reading an adventure book. He is imagining himself as the knight with the beautiful princess. In my version, Zote got into Gretta’s library. He is reading all the weird fanfictions she wrote about him. Listening to him read is the Grimmchild. As a little child, he likes to listen to someone reading while he falls asleep. He finds Zote’s grumpy voice extremely soothing. As for...
Dreaming Alien Blue Jellyfish Mermaid
Today, I wanted to show you this mermaid painting. I have a thing for Jellyfishes. I draw them from time to time. If I am not drawing them, I am utilizing their color palette. Anyhow, I got from Gencraft some acrylic paints. I did a demonstration video of the types of paintings that you can do with just 25 paints. This is the influencer drawing that I made to promote their paints. Above, I will post a photograph of the set I used to make this painting. Now, it is time to talk about the actual artwork. I used paper,...
