#InkTober day 20 ~ Iridescent Irises, alcohol inks

7x10.5 alcohol inks on foamcore done today for the 20th day of the month #InkTober challenge.  For each day of October every year artists vow to produce or create one work in ink.  I'm really enjoying the vivid hues of the Pinata and Tim Holtz brands of inks.  These colored shapes reminded me of iris blooms hence the title.  An upcoming demo will be for the West Texas Art Guild in Colorado City using alcohol inks.
