This week I was in a collage frame of mind. I wanted to start using some of the wonderful papers I have been hoarding but to start off slowly because it has been awhile. Going through completed, started, half done and never to be finished projects I found this great little photo of a painting I had done of lemons. What would it be like to have an oil painting, a photo and a collage of the same subject??? Well here are the results.
The top is the completed collage, then a detail and lastly the collage with the photo on top.

alcohol inks
I love experimenting with other mediums besides oils. I usually try collaging or even pourings using acrylics but I have discovered something new alcohol inks. I know these are not new but they are to me and I have been enjoying them for a few weeks now.
I am mostly using tiles and yupo paper right now. I tried photo paper but did not have as much luck. I feel like they really need a smooth surface even with the flow medium. I did a few tiles that I liked using the same color combinations.
On this one I tried stamping the tile after the ink was partially dry. It was semi successful but I need a lot more practice.
With this tile I used flow medium and let the ink move around while I moved the tile in different directions. I also used a lot of spray alcohol to make the small spots.
With this tile I tried putting alcohol on the tile and adding inks to an area at a time. This one reminds me of a landscape with a sky, trees and a lake.
This is a lot of fun and very relaxing. It allows you to let loose in a creative way.
