Lavender Girl by mpn
well, since martin is very busy this week.. i will add a contribution today. Lavender Girl started off as a doodle.. an exercise, “try-out” thingie for me.. with my new graphic tablet. i love it .. but i still a bit of practice.. or lots of it. together with the tablet i got some great software, but there too, i need to learn.. and two things at the same time.. nope. so… tablet comes first and the program i used here is ArtRage .. one of my favs 🙂
Saturday’s Doodle – Spirit Guides? by mpn
Bear, Fish, Spirit .. a doodle… a doodle done without thinking…… just letting it happen.. going deep ? Perhaps my subconscious brought up some of my guides? I like to think so 🙂
This doodle started off with a few blobs of gouache on wet paper … let it dry over night and then.. I saw them immediately.. the Bear, Fish and Spirit.. I worked on them with Inktense Pencils and a bit of black and white gouache in the end.Â
A variety of different mediums used here, acrylic, chalk pastels, colour pencils and with some collage, all over layers of cloth, acrylic, and varnish. Each layer was doodled on after they dried.
This was fun. My doodle started with wax crayons.. don’t i just love those! Just scribbling and scrabbling and making loops and wiggles.. then i discovered a blob of old, dried up gouache paint and kind of dripped that onto the paper – which i had sprayed with water before. Then i let it dry for a few hours.. and the first thing i saw were the eyes and the funny little hat.. and from there i doodled on.. now using inktence pencils. in the end.. a bit of black and white gouache .. et voilà … the thursday doodle was done – around 2 a.m. this morning 🙂
Coloured and watercolour pencils and oil pastels on watercolour paper and plastic.
This is an experimental one. It’s a doodle on paper.. then plastic heat wrapped over it…and doodled on the plastic again.
