Redbud Trees abstract

5x7 alcohol inks on paper done a few days ago.  With a wooden chopstick in the wet ink, I pulled lines upwards to resemble tree branches in this abstract piece.

Trees in Abstract Abyss

7.75x7.75 alcohol inks on white foamcore done today with the background put in first using Cloudy Blue and Eggplant.  Next I added Sunbright Yellow (where green trees are) and it did nothing for the composition so added Cloudy Blue to that hence the tree shapes.  A trunk was put in using a chopstick and now I have an abstract landscape.

Autumn Landscape in Inks

4x6 alcohol inks on paper, an abstract done today using 4 colors of Willow, Ginger, Burro Brown, and Sunset Orange. I used canned air to make the vertical tree like marks on right side and going across to the left middle.  With cooler temps and rain every day since last week, autumn definitely is here and these colors can testify.

The Blue Beyond

5x7 alcohol inks on Yupo synthetic paper done today.  Not having much time today I got three colors of inks out and the small Yupo.  Using Willow, Honeycomb, and Indigo I created this abstract landscape with several layers of blown color.  Canned air is much faster to push the ink around than using a drinking straw.

Trees or Flowers ~ day 8 of 30 paintings in 30 days challenge

4.75x8.75 alcohol inks on white freezer paper done for day 8 of Leslie Saeta's 30 paintings in 30 days challenge blog.  I had intended for these large yellow shapes to be flowers but they came out resembling trees more hence the title.  In this abstract landscape anything goes.

Land and Sky

8x8 alcohol inks on foamcore board done a few days ago using a fairly limited palette of browns and a couple of blues. I don't do many landscapes or portraits but was in the mood to do an imaginary scene showing mostly sky.
