Synesthesia Alcohol ink Art 2: Copper Blue and Copper Red
This is my final set of synesthesia inspired ink art. They were done on pixiss paper. It is good for handling ink. It doesn’t take much ink in order to paint a pretty picture. Both paintings were done on black paper. I started by adding white in the background. Inks are transparent. So, they need a bit of white for them to be noticeable against the black background. The first artwork was a pretty blue song. It had hues of silver. Eventually, the copper came to the foreground, but not too strongly. The second painting was quite the red artwork....
Synesthesia Alcohol Ink Art 2: Copper Lightning and Copper Bubbles

Dynamic Poses: Sitting, Lying, Sleeping and Thinking
It seemed like a good a time as any to do some practice drawings. Since I don’t have models, I just sketch poses from paintings that I like. Most of the time the drawings come out well.

Well, this is about it as far as my drawings are concerned. My name is Teresita Blanco, the Artsy Sister. Bye, bye and God bless.

Synesthesia Ink Art: Wet Versions Copper Tones
I made new ink arts. The yellow ink finally arrived. I had 5 different tones of yellow to work with. There was one I particularly liked. It was yellow highlighter. The colors tend to lighten when the ink dries. I played a vinyl record while I painted. My brother helped by describing the colors. He has synesthesia. It is fun to make paintings with his help. If anything, these paintings get done pretty quickly. Most of the songs I work with are less than 4 minutes long. I used pixiss and marubu inks. I needed a lot of yellow. So,...
