I'm baaaack and the masking fluid is flowing all over the place!

Finally uni is over for the year and I have some time to let my creativity out.
For these two pieces I poured masking fluid on the page and let it spread out wherever it wanted.
Once it dried I smeared water colour paint wherever it wanted to go too.
After pulling the masking fluid off I could see the images that created themselves and let the pen take control.

Thank you for being patient. I'm hoping to post regularly till uni starts again next year. 

Mixed Media

I have been watching a lot of mixed media videos on YouTube (especially the Gelli Arts channel). I've been inspired to try new things.

I made a gelli plate and did some prints on sticky tape (sounds weird but turned out really well.

I rubbed some silver leaf onto the sticky parts on the back of the tape then stuck it to another piece of paper I had already done some food colouring and glad wrap on with some masking fluid.

Then the drawing started, I found that white gel pen turns out beautifully on top of the tape.

I then decided to use the Gelli plate to do some reverse stamping. Lol! I layered the paint down and stamped onto some old cards I had lying around. I kept layering more and more paint with different patterns and stamped and ghost stamped away.

This is the Gelli plate. Such a great medium to work with
