    The effect from the shelf liner is so cool. And I’m pretty sure every artist got super excited the first time we all saw that netting packing material lol. Gorgeous colour palette. The blue & browny pink circles on the R & centre look so much like a jellyfish.

    Packaging is the best to have around. There are so many types and materials. I have lots of fun stuff I hang on to and use in many of my pieces. As a former pkg eng, since retired, I would dig through suppliers scrap materials looking for fun things. I still have a shelf full of goodies waiting their turn 😊

    New adventures every time -- I'm glad that piece *was* in fact three dimensional, when I saw it in the thumbnail I thought damn, how did that woman get her paints to look 3D -- at least you haven't gone that far yet :) ❤🧡💛

  • @staceg2003
    @staceg2003 6 месяцев назад +2

    Love these colors! So pretty! Regarding getting circles from the dip pen - if anyone is having difficulty, make sure the pen is fully loaded & there aren't any dried ink blobs impeding the flow. Also, the angle of the pen to the paper will change the mark that's made, so experiment with that. If you're holding the pen like you're writing (which tends to be more of an angle to the paper) rather than drawing (which is more straight down to the paper) it will give a different result.

    I was so intrigued by that 3D element you added when I saw your thumbnail photo in my feed. Loved the painting and marks that you made that were circular but not literally in a circle (way to think out of the circle, lol). Then wham - the unexpected - that packing material! I snickered when you said you didn’t want globs of glue on it that people might wonder if it was snot! 😂 So good!!!

    Love the subtle watercolors and the shelf liner texture. Punchinella can be a great collage element. Sand the shiny paint off and paint over, or grunge it up with rust or patina finishes. (hint I'd like to see what you do with it!)

  • @ShoshiPlatypus
    @ShoshiPlatypus 6 месяцев назад +1

    This is fabulous. New subscriber! Love the combination of subtle colours, circles and doodles. That shelf liner texture is awesome!! I use that paper mesh a lot in my collage. If you spread it out and tape it down over some other paper, you can spray it with ink to colour it, and it acts as a stencil at the same time, producing awesome results on the layer underneath. I've sprayed it with gold over a dark coloured card which looks fantastic. In its raw state, you can expand it, and rub the raised surface with gilding wax which looks great against the brown paper. You can also use it to create texture on the gel plate, and then use the piece with the paint on it in collage. I need to stop saving this now, as I've got a whole roll of pieces of it that have come with deliveries.
    As for the paper punchinella, I use the leaflets that come with my medication. It is already accordion-folded, and it's printed. Without unfolding it, I punch holes in it with my Crop-a-Dile and then unfold it. You get a much nicer effect than punchinella because the holes are not completely regular. I combine both sizes of hole from the Crop-a-Dile. Again, you can spray this and use it as a stencil at the same time. It tears beautifully along the perforations, leaving a great edge, and I often use little strips that are torn from two adjacent lines of holes. The printing on it adds texture and interest.
    You can search for examples of this in my projects on my blog - link in my profile.
