Yes.....A New Post.

 

 I've been working on a few new things over the past few months. Here is one.

 Here  I'm working with liquid water colors. It is a special order from Discount School Supply. I could not find it in a regular arts and crafts store.

 The possibilities are endless. You have to be careful, It stains your hands and your clothes, so please wear a paint shirt.

 You can dilute it with water ( I recommend) You can add texture, with a number of things around the house. Here, I used screen. Best of all it comes in a wide variety of colors.

You then can make it into a fun collage.

Blocks Of Art

I would like to introduce my latest endeavor.

I call them Blocks of Art.

If you go back a few posts ago,  you might remember that I was experimenting with backgrounds. I was also playing around with doodling. With this new attempt I have put them together!

 

 

The process starts by doodling on  drawing paper.

I use a fine brush tip marker, which allows for varing widths of lines. Then I incorperate different types of pens. I have fun doodling, but tend towards flowers.

 

 I mount the designed papers on blocks of wood of various sizes.

 I present them on small easels. I think they are so cute.

 They fit nicely on a  bookshelf or anywhere.

They will soon appear in my ETSY store.

Doodles and Beyond...

I start out making my own backgrounds. I find it fun using liquid watercolors, they are messy but I like the way they turn out.


 

I also use different textures of paper, watercolor color paper is my favorite.
Each paper gives a different look.

 

I use different thickness of markers and pens.


 Brush tip markers are fun to use.

 

You can use different kinds of colored inks.

 

Color makes a difference.

 

Give it a try. The possibilities are endless.
