Index Card Art Part 2

Hello Friends!

Well, I almost forgot that I promised to do a midweek post to share the ICAD art from this year, so here it is.  I hope you'll pop back on Sunday to look at the pieces I've done for Artful August too!  Art is so therapeutic, as well as fun. 

This is another Neurographic piece, the reverse side is always interesting when alcohol ink is used.  In fact, all the cards I'm sharing today are Neurographic or variations on that theme.


The "right" side


Alcohol ink and micron pens
 

close up of above with light shining through looks like stained glass


water colour pencils, Staedtler fine liners and a water spray bottle


Acrylic inks

monochrome using grey mixed media


Gouache {gives very flat colour not easy to blend or shade} and Posca pens


Alcohol ink, Acrylic, and erasing areas using Surgical Spirit on a cotton bud


Variation of above

Well, my friends, I hope you like them.  Do you have a favourite?  I'd love to know, and why you like it.

Until next time
Stay safe, stay well

    1. Thank you, Martha Ellen. Yes, I'm enjoying it more this year than ever before. Possibly because 62 of us are in a small support group where we share ideas and offer encouragement to each other. xoxo

    1. Thank you Jeanie. There are lots of "how to do" videos, so I wonder if you'll give it a go?
