Been holding off posting because they changed the format. Need some time to figure out the new process.. Can't be changing things with "computer challenged" folks...
Enjoyed painting this little guy.
Even like the black background. It has become a habit lately.
Trying to perfect the process..
I find the India Ink rather easy, but the many layers of black paint (for the same effect), difficult.
There is a wonderful artist, Jacquelin Gnott, that I have watched for a long time.. This rose is one of hers . I have tried to use her work as a study in shadows as well as color combinations. Next will be an awesome yellow Iris. If you would like to visit her blog click on the address. http://jacquelingnott.blogspot.com
Thanks for visiting. Thanks Kathryn and Jacquelin for the inspiration.
