I used inks, pencil, acrylic, surgical spirit and lots of water. I let the paint run, drip and splash. I had no agenda as to how I wanted the final picture to end up.....all I knew was that I wanted to be guided by instinct and that is what happened.
Anyway, here it is and it's also in time for Paint Party Friday - yay!
I will be posting more on this making of this painting soon, but in the meantime, take care and have a wonderful Friday.

Helen, your painting is beautiful. I think it would make a gorgeous scarf or maybe even a skirt. I don't know how you'd go about making an acrylic painting into a fabric.

Hi Helen! So nice to meet you through PPF :) We must be on the same wave length because I have been trying new things lately and letting the piece take me where it wants, it's so fun! Plus we both did a forest painting this time... haha
I love your painting, it's beautiful and the drips turned out wonderfully. Great techniques!

This is lovely - I love the sharpness of the flowers in contrast with the looseness of the background.
