Ink Art: Violet and Blue Sea Slugs Gold
I made new ink art. I used watercolor and mixed media paper. I wanted to find an alternative for ink art paper. With watercolor paper, the inks act more like markers. You get the same effect if you were painting with regular markers. The paper is rather thirsty. So, it absorbs the ink immediately. The watercolor paper has a similar problem, but it doesn’t absorb the ink too much. So, you can smoosh it around if you need to. The paper also warps. It isn’t good to wet it too much. The first painting features a purple sea...
Ink Art: Fjordia browni Sea Slug Ink art
I made new ink art. I painted it on oil paper. I had recently ran out of ink paper. So, I tried to use something else. The results varied. I had to use a lot of ink to cover up the paper. This was a bit of a pain. So, I ended up ordering new ink art paper. Even if the ink didn’t behave the way I liked, I still managed to produce a decent painting. It just goes to show that an artist can make art with whatever. This brings me to my sea slug. It is called...
Hollow Knight Mantis Lords Greek Fanart
I did a new Hollow knight poll. I wanted to decided the dress theme of my next fanart. The winner of the poll was Greek fashion. For a while, it was a tight race between Greek and Mayan. In the end, Greco roman fashion won. I guess folks just like those dashing Greek togas. As my models, I chose the Mantis Lords. They are always fun to threes up. The painting I am referencing is called Midsummer by Albert Moore. It shows two maidens fanning a woman sitting on a throne. When I saw this painting, I just...
Azur Lane Crosswave Shimakaze Pinup Fanart
This is my first Azur Lane fanart. I went for a bit of a pinup look. The reference material was made by Enoch Bolles. In my digital art, Shimakaze is opening up her presents. Since she is an army maiden, all she has gotten are swords and machine guns. I gave her the terminator machine gun inside a present box. She even got a sake to celebrate her victories. In her new sword, she noticed something odd. The new katana has a rabbit’s foot at the end of it. Rabbit’s foot are supposed to bring you luck. She...
Pouring Acrylic: Funnel and Flip cup Technique on Black
These are the last pouring arts of the day. You can see the videos of these Artworks in my Artys Sister Titktok and Youtube channels. It is more fun to see how art is made, than to read about it. Even so, here is the blog and some painting details. I used a wood panel to make the painting. I added a thin layer of titanium white to the panels to keep the painting from sinking. I had ran out of gesso. So, I used regular acrylic paints as gesso. It gets the job done. In the first painting,...
