MARK-MAKING with no brushes allowed! - Day 3 (Creative Elements Challenge)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 июл 2024
- The creative task for Day 3 is to discover a new type of mark or pattern!
🎨 5-DAY Creative Elements Challenge 🎨
🌿 Access the supply list 👉 geni.us/INKCd
To keep things interesting, try using alternative tools such as twigs, feathers, sponges, palette knives, or items from around the home.
For paint, I am using Daler Rowney FW Ink in Antelope Brown, instant coffee, and teabags. If you prefer, you can use watercolour, acrylic, or any other supply.
This is a fun exercise and always a good one for loosening up and getting outside of your comfort zone.
When you have finished the exercise, take a moment to notice if there is a type of mark or pattern you want to incorporate more often into your work. If you want to keep going, how about adding some marks to your backgrounds from Day 2?
I love seeing your work under the hashtag #creativeelementschallenge. It's all so inspiring!

I am in LOVE with acrylic inks; the jewel tones, the sheen and the colors.
Me too, inks are one of my all-time favourite supplies. I was only thinking today, it would be good to do a specific ink video here on RUclips.
🌬🎨Loving this Abstract painting class. 😊 of course I chose black for my one color 😊
I love that! So happy that you're enjoying it!
I love the freedom you have in your art and your ability to work in the most gorgeous of colors! This was a lovely creative challenge - Thank you!
Thank you, glad you are enjoying the challenge. It's fun to just let go and play!
👏👏👏
Thank you so much
You're welcome 😊
Yes, love that twig!!!! Like chicken foot.
Oh yes, that's what it looks like, a chicken foot! A very cool twig indeed.
The good time spreads from short videos.
Glad you like them! More to come :)
So much fun to see you gathering materials from your garden and using them in your sketchbook!
Good afternoon 🤗 Laura 🌹 I used tea and inks with a old tooth brush, a little pine corn from the tree in the front yard the round finger end of a dabber and wooden skewer and a plastic pipette just so much fun till tomorrow enjoy your evening ☺️🌹💌🖌️🎨🦄🤗
Love all the tools you found, inspiring!
@@LauraHornArt Thank you Laura btw the tooth brush was a new never used one that was the free one I get each time we go to our dentist 2 times a year didn't want you to think I brushed my teeth with it LoL ☺️🦄🤗
haha, didn't even cross my mind! I just thought that a tooth brush was a great idea!
@@LauraHornArt Smiling and Thank you Laura 🌹🦄🤗
Thank you for all your effort in this video and for sharing your techniques.
Thank you so much Laura, I really really enjoyed watching you create this beautiful and organic artwork. I absolutely love ❤❤❤❤ what you’ve created and I really really love ❤❤❤❤ the natural look you’ve achieved here. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
Your comment brightened my day. Wishing you many happy days of painting ahead!
I am loving this challenge. I couldn't wait for today's challenge. ❤
Delighted to her that, today's prompt is so satisfying for the senses!
Loving this challenge week. Really interesting prompts. Great work Laura ❤
Thanks so much! 😊 Glad you are enjoying it Anna!
Love these pages.
had some trouble working on this prompt with watercolors
That was a lot of fun! Love your sweet kitty coming into the picture! I have been collecting a few things on my nature walks to try out different kinds of marks. That blouse is such a beautiful shade of green, by the way. Thank you for sharing your great ideas. 💚
I like your forest-green dress😍 Where did you purchase it?😉
So simple, yet incredibly beautiful results🤩
I never get bored watching for the 6th time. Helps me with motivation
I love using coffee I keep some in a spray bottle and I picked up a tip recently that if you add a few drops of alcohol it stops it going mouldy 😁 loving these videos ❤xxx
That's such a great tip, thank you!
I love coffee art! I’ve always wanted to try 😊
Loved this video and such great ideas. I've always wanted to do art with coffee and this has given me the push. Thanks! Your outdoor area is just beautiful!😊❤️
Thank you, have fun! Coffee is great to experiment with! Sometimes I just throw granules on to puddles of water to see what effects I can get. It always smells great to me ☕️
I love this challenge. I feel like I can really do this because it doesn't have to look like anything in particular and this allows a certain freedom to flow. I will try this. Thank you for the idea.
So happy to read your comment! That's exactly what this challenge is all about. Letting go of the pressure of painting a final piece and exploring the different parts of the creative process in a relaxing and fun way! Enjoy the rest of the videos, and yes you can do this!!
Awesome and nice video...👌 so beautiful artwork!!...❤️❤️❤️ thanks for sharing..👍👍👍
Thank you so much 😀
Brilliant idea, thank you for sharing. Very natural art 😊❤
Thank you. Beautiful and entertaining.
Love your dress. 💚
At 7:10 this came alive for me 😊
lovely garden!
I love this! Thank you.
Such a beautiful and inspiring challenge! As always your videos encourage me to try too! Your house and garden is so warm and inviting. I feel like I’m right there with you! Not only is your art beautiful but you are a beautiful person and you look so beautiful too! Your face is always glowing and vibrant. If I may ask, kind of a funny question but what make-up do you use? It looks so natural!
Hi Denise, thanks for such a lovely comment. I'm glad that you find the videos encouraging. You absolutely can give this a go! I totally relate to the question about the make-up, I always think things like that too and I am delighted that you feel my face is glowing 😊 who doesn't want that!! As far as what I use, I've been using Nars Sheer Glow foundation in the shade Deauville for years. I also have a pretty good skin care routine and try and get good sleep!
@@LauraHornArt You are so sweet, thank you for the name! Beauty comes from the inside out and good skin care, diet and sleep are essential. I'd love to know what skin care system you use if you're willing to share. Thank you so much! 🪶🐦🌺
I'm loving using a sketchbook. I love your pages here. Checking out the challenge, and I've subd😊
Lots of new ideas for color application ! How beautiful the color of coffee is! Thank very much, the week has wonderful begun with this video
Thank you, happy to hear that ☕️ Enjoy the rest of your week!
GREAT VIDEO..LOVED IT❤😊
Just found this series and going to start from the beginning tomorrow. Your style is very much my vibes/aesthetics. Where did you get your lovely green dress?!
I’ve recently subscribed & have been enjoying your videos! As a newbie in general, but particularly in mixed media style art - I was wondering if you can watercolour over the top of your inks?? I know very little about using acrylic inks, but noticed from your ‘favorite supplies list’ that you love to use them within your pieces of art… I love seeing your cat pop into your videos 😻🐈⬛😽
Bonjour Laura! Lovely! I like the coffee to! 💜 Where we share our pictures of our creations? On instagram or here? Thank you so much! You put sunshine in my day! 🙏🙂✨💟
Thank you, you can share on social media such as Instagram using the hashtag #creativeelementschallenge. Feel free to tag me as well so I can easily see your creations!
@@LauraHornArt thank you! 🙂✨💫
Merci infiniment 🙏😊
Boa Noite , Estou assistindo o video aqui do Brasil , Estado de São Paulo , Feliz Pascoa Laura .. Adoro seus trabalhos , esse parece voltar aos desenhos primitivos , Parace ancestral. Parabéns
Helllo Laura - do you gesso your pages prior to placing the water color or ink down? Wonderful videos, thank you
Hi Beth, thanks for watching the challenge videos. No I don't gesso my pages, I work straight onto the paper.
😊😊😊💖
Do you gesso your pages? Thank you.
No, not usually! I just get started painting :)
I must be psychic! My jar of coffee is almost empty, so when I made my cup, I added hot water to the remainder to use in my art & to stain some fabric and paper. I love the marks made by the twig, it looks so natural & earthy. 😊
Perfect timing ☕️🎨
