5x7 alcohol inks on Yupo synthetic paper, an imaginary red variegated tulip. I used lots of blending solution with this one to get the ink to flow and mix. The red center was an afterthought when I turned it vertically and added a brighter red hue and let it run down. Initially I had a blue background that didn't work so removed that with 91% alcohol then added Sunbright Yellow. The dark edges of the flower are that blue that I left on there. (Yupo is sold by Tim Holtz products available thru www.scrapbook.com)
