Ink Art: Meteor Shadow, Nebula and Rainbow Dots
Today, I wanted to show you my three new ink arts. The first one worth mentioning is supposed to invoke a meteor shower. I used a mold in order to make the ice centers. I first painted the silvery edges with plenty of ink. I used rubbing alcohol to make the paint flow a little better. Rubbing alcohol combines well with alcohol ink. The problem is obviously the smell. Try to have ventilator on in order to keep the fumes from rising up and hitting your face. I would advise you to use a mask, but the one I...
Wood Grain Alcohol Ink Art
Today, I wanted to show you my latest Alcohol ink art. I made two paintings using my smallest canvases. They are themed after wood. I used Pixiv paper and ink. They combine well together. The first painting I was trying to invoke the interior of a sliced piece of wood. I started by creating strong circular bubbles. On the edges, I added a nice wash of brown ink. I first added a lot of rubbing alcohol in the edges before putting the paper horizontally. This created the soft brown ink patterns. Once it finished dripping to the bottom, I...
Hollow Knight Britto Heart Fanart
Today, I felt like making a new Hollow Knight painting fanart. I chose to do Britto because I like his art style. I think it would combine well with the Hollow Knight Aesthetics. Hollow Knight is a very grey game. I wanted to see how the Grey Mourner Ze’mer and the Traitor’s Child would look like with a bit of color. Both characters within the game have grey colors. Their backstory is pretty depressing. They were lovers that were not allowed to be together. The traitor’s child is eventually killed. Ze’mer is left completely by herself to mourn the loss...
Teresita Blanco Self Portraits Britto and Picasso Style
Today, I wanted to show you two new self-portraits. I was mimicking the painting style of Romero Britto and Pablo Picasso. Both have pretty similar cubism style. Picasso is classical cubism, while Britto is soft Cubism. Picasso likes to have plain backgrounds, while Britto likes colorful backgrounds. Both artists are visually comparable. This is why I chose to make two self-portraits in their styles. The first painting I wanted to talk about is the self-portrait I made Pablo Picasso style. I looked through my closet to find a dress that looked a bit cubist. I also wore a cute yellow...
Hollow Knight Bretta and Zote Barbie Movie Fanart
Today, I made a new Hollow Knight fanart. I blended it with the Barbie movie. Barbie and Ken are being playing with Bretta and Zote the Mighty. I chose his mighty form because this scene is taking place inside Bretta’s fantasy. She is playing with her little dolls, while she fantasizes going on adventures with Zote. Zote in the real world is just as insecure in Ken. Just like Ken, Zote also likes to philosophize about big topics he doesn’t understand. Instead of a car, I had the characters riding the last Stag. I added Barbie colors to the stag’s...
