Spring's Series #4

I have enjoyed doing the Spring's Series so much.  As I told you in previous posts, these remind of the clear waters of our natural springs that lead to deep caves amongst the rocks.  They have opened my world to the magic of alcohol inks.  I will definitely continue to explore this medium!

Springs Series 3

This is another painting in the Spring Series.  I am having so much fun with the alcohol inks!  If you haven't tried them, you need to.  This looks like you are looking down in the clear water springs that goes into the caves.

Far Away

Today it has been raining and cloudy all day in North Florida.  There aren't many days we don't see sunshine but today was one of them.  To add insult to injury, my Mother and I both had Doctors appointments in a town over an hour away.  I am so tired after driving in the rain.  I am going to make a pot of decaf coffee and dream of pleasant things far away.
This is one of the little pieces I did when I was playing with the alcohol inks.  I do not feel guilty at all posting it today because it was done within the 30 days...just not this day. Cheers! And pleasant dreams!

Springs Series # 2

This is the second alcohol ink painting done in my Sunday Springs Series.  When I was growing up, the springs were our reward for a long days work.  Our Daddy would drive us to the springs and we would all jump in, so happy to escape the day's heat. The spring water is cool and clear year round.  I hope you feel the invigorating freshness as you view this.

Reds

Those of you who know me well knew what was coming next.  I had to try the reds.  I love these inks!  They make my heart sing!  They are not for control freaks because there isn't much control.  You can gently manipulate them but do not think you are going to be in charge.  That is just what I was looking for! Wait till you see what is coming next!

Springs series

I really don't like to work on Sundays.  Since I consider my painting work, I have a hard time trying to think about what to paint.  I decided it was time to try alcohol inks. Since I have never used them, it will be like play. They have a mind of their own so it will keep me loose.

I grew up in North Florida where there are many natural water springs that bubble up out of the ground.  They are usually very cold, deep, clear water.  They are connected by caves where divers come from all over the world to explore.  They have always fascinated me.  I am very excited to show you the beginnings of a new series.

This is the first painting in what I am going to call my "Sunday Springs series".  It reminds me of standing on the rocks on the side of the springs with the water bubbling up all around.  I hope you can feel the excitement as I do!  I stand in awe of the things the Lord has made!  Have a blessed day!
