I have wanted to do a total earth tone ink painting for some time.  There are multiple layers that were allowed to dry before adding the next layer.  When the wet ink falls on to the dry ink, as it pushes out it makes these wonderful rings.  The earth tones were not so easy as the colors as it is all too easy to end up with just a sea of brown.

For this ink painting, I was a bit messier than usual.  I like how there are layers of color that lie beneath with the gold and yellow bursts peeking out from underneath.

I had some more metallic ink so I had to do another piece.  This time, after I applied the copper and the pearl, I added the orange on top of it.  I like how you can see the metallic ink underneath the color.

I wanted to experiment with metallic inks so I started off with with gold and silver.  The metallic inks were a bit thicker than my other inks so they held their shapes nicely while the beautiful blue swirled around them.

Halloween month is right around the corner so to start getting you in the mood I did a Spooky Landscape. This landscape is painted with ink on Yupo paper. I decided to use a Halloween palette of black, gray, orange, green and purple and then go with the flow!

Blue Green Abstract

Copic ink on Yupo paper. I was going to use only shades of green but then somehow the blue dropped in there! I love working with ink on this paper because it does not absorb anything.  You drop the ink on and either guide it or let it go where it wants to.
