Ink Art: Pansy and Fruit Still Life Valentines Day
I made new ink art. It is themed after Valentine’s Day. I used the round paper and my black paper. The still life features the last black paper that I own. The ink and paint were made by pixiss. I have gotten a lot of milage out of a 25-ink set and some paper. I tend to think out the paint by adding rubbing alcohol. This makes them last longer. It also helps not to apply too much paint at once. I also took photos of the wet and dry version of the paintings. I photographed the painting...
Ink Art: Sunflowers in Round and Black Paper
I made new ink art. Both paintings feature sunflowers. They are sunflowers for Valentine’s day. Sunflowers are the flower of fidelity. So, if you give one to your sweetheart, they are not going to get it. Most folks do not know the language of flowers. This will be the chance to sound cool. Do not forget. Sunflowers mean loyalty. Let us move things along, shall we. Both paintings were done with Pixiss ink and paper. I have made a lot of paintings with those inks. The first artwork was made in round paper. I painted a...
Hollow Knight Monomon Dali Surrealism Painting Parody
I did a new Hollow Knight Poll. The winner of that Poll was the Dreamer Monomon. I struggled a bit to come up with a new fanart for this character. After looking at a bunch of paintings and movie posters, I came up with this. I drew a painting parody of this surrealism painting by Dali. It is called Ballerina in a Death’s Head. When I saw this painting, I fancied that it would make a good Monomon Fanart. Both have similar head dresses and skirts. I think I did the fanart alright. From far away, you can kind of...
Valentine’s Day Ink Art: Roses and Chocolate Box
I made new ink art themed After Valentine’s day. This time I focused on gift ideas. It is a bit of a cliché. Still, I made roses and a chocolate box ink art. I used pixiss ink and paper. I chose black paper to make these artworks. I started by spraying the paper with white ink. This would allow the colored inks to be visible against the black backgrounds. The inks pigments are a little transparent. So, they need a little extra help for them to stand out. In the first painting, I drew the rose pattern with...
Valentine’s Day Ink Art: Hand Holding and Kiss
It is a little bit too early to make Valentine’s Day art. Still, I figured I would get around to it. I looked at some reference material. I didn’t want to just draw a bunch of hearts for Valentine’s Day. That isn’t creative. I settled for painting a couple handholding. The other painting features a kiss. Both paintings were made by Pixiss ink and paper. I used the biggest paper I had available to make these artworks. I didn’t saturate the paper with rubbing alcohol. I felt like making a dot type of painting. If I saturate...
