Hello |

Hejsa |

Nice to know you! Hope this site brings a lot of magic, beauty and faery luck to you! |

I'll be delighted to hear how you get on with the ink technique :) Have fun! I think of it as a way to make the white paper a more interesting surface to draw on. You probably know this - but it's best to tape the paper down first so that it dries flat :) Suzanne |

Hi again :) I should add, about the ink technique, that as the inks (Daler Rowney FW) are such lovely strong pigments I use only a couple of drops at a time diluting them with water in my palette before splashing, spattering and mottling the paper. I also sometimes use dampened paper for a wet-in-wet effect, or spray the paper with water from a plant mist-sprayer and let the inks run into that surface. Then blow the colours around on the surface with a straw - fun! Suzanne |

Thank you so much for your kind remarks about my work. You asked about my ink technique (owls) - I first mottle the watercolour paper with acrylic inks (Daler Rowney FW Artists Inks) using a limited palette usually of just two or three colours to give a 'blended' effect which helps unify the painting, then when dry I draw onto this with black ink. It's fun making the backgrounds, letting the inks run and blend together :) Suzanne |
