This is my first experimental artwork with acrylic inks!! I purchased some new acrylic inks along with alot of other art supplies that were on a list of art supplies I need for a new art class I’m taking. I purchased an abstract art class called Abstract Mojo with Tracy Verdugo. I’m excited about it, but I haven’t been able to watch the lessons yet because my laptop is in the shop, and its not compatible with my phone. I should have my laptop back in one more week, but in the mean time, its driving me crazy not to be able to watch the lessons, because I am part of her online art community and have been seeing amazing art posted by many other students!!! Of course I want to be able to do that, too!
But since I’m so excited about it and can’t watch the lessons I purchased, yet, I have been watching a few YouTube tutorials about acrylic inks.
I was too tired to invest any energy in a major piece of art, so I decided to just experiment today and try them out on a smaller paper. I used them today for the first time on top of a watercolor painting. I had also experimented with some new oil pastels I got which I added first. This is made on 8.5×5.5 inch mixed media paper which is a good size to use for quick sketches or just exploring.
