Description

This dreamy scape offers many possibilities! Perhaps a sand dune kissed by the morning sun? A desert plateau in a distant land? What do you see? That's the magic of this "inkling..." its vague notion leaves YOU to interpret its beauty.

Using alcohol inks is a fascinating process of merging and flowing inks together to create form... usually a vague hint of form that allows you, the observer, to decide what it is you see.

My process is one of yielding and allowing the inks to do their magic. I often start with an idea, but by the time I have finished, the inks have created the image themselves, abandoning my idea and going for their own instead. I just allow them to flow and grow and rest on the paper in their own time and way.

From beginning to end, creating with alcohol inks is not only a fun process but a healing and meditative one as well, for both the artist and the observer.
