I drew the white bits with a masking liquid pen
and let it dry
then wet the sky with water and dropped black ink into it
(I learned this technique from Stephanie Law's
the landscape was painted with pure black ink
when dry I rubbed the masking away revealing the white
It was a fun thing to do and I think I would enjoy trying it again

Greetings Christiene.
It is a fun technique to try.
DeleteHow interesting to try a new technique and doesn't it look good.
ReplyDeleteThe sky behind looks quite ominous, I think it might rain.
Yes, and it is suppose to rain tonight and tomorrow! That will be good for our air quality and the forest. Won’t put them out but maybe slow them down?
DeleteTrouble is there is suppose to be big winds too. It is a fun technique. Mostly you let it do it’s own thing and then dry.
Beautiful and interesting! You have made a special world with your new technique!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Tomoko. It has a bit of a Japanese feel to me.
DeleteOh it's beautiful Tammie Lee! I love it, I was thinking of the moon myself for the black and white. You've done it wonderfully! :)
