7x7 alcohol inks on 3/18" white foamcore done for day 17 today of #InkTober. An annual challenge, artists across the globe are pledging and promising to do one work in ink per day during October. I love the warm fall colors this abstract floral has and the undertones seen as faint blues are amazing things alcohol inks can do. Always a surprise, the inks are fun and stress-free, with no required pencil drawing beforehand. Just drop by drop create interesting patterns and mixtures; if you don't like it simply douse with 91% rubbing alcohol and start over.
