A holiday bauble painted with alcohol ink. 👩‍🎨

This is one of the techniques I enjoy most. First, I drip ink on some plastic wrap, wrap the ornament up, and let it sit overnight. Then, the big reveal.

With 90° temperatures for the weekend, it certainly feels like summer here. 😃

Summer also feels like flowers, ocean waves, and bubbles (painted with alcohol inks) - see the video. 🌻🌊🫧👩‍🎨

What does summer feel like to you?😊

My Sunday art project was playing with alcohol inks on a 6” black NARA circle. Calling this “Midnight Sunflower.”

What did you do on Sunday? Rest and relax? Paint? Go for a walk?

Do you know that doodling has been shown to help with mindfulness? In studies that have been done, they call it #neurographicart but I still call it doodling.👩‍🎨

I needed something meditative 🙏🏻over the weekend so I #doodled
