HAPPY HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all you moms; of humans and fur babies!
I HOPE YOUR WEEKEND IS CREATIVELY FABULOUS! 

Please enjoy this FUN time-lapse #video of painting #Lilac-Like flowers in #alcoholink on #Yupo paper using #RangerInk's products. The mini ink dabber and the (controversial) BLENDING PEN were the main tools used to create this painting. Work in progress photos, with a detailed description of each step of this project is scheduled to appear on the Ranger Ink Blog on May 15th. I hope you enJOY this video, check out the #stepbystep pics on Monday and give this technique a try. Please pardon the cross posting, but I wanted to get this gift message out to all my creative online friends.

Thanks so much for stopping by and for helping me celebrate.

Have a great Mother's Day and happy creating!

P.S. Don't forget, registration ends and the May 14th Spring Session 

gets rolled out this Sunday!

Alcohol Ink on Yupo Demo Sponsored by Legion Paper

"I value a "don't know" attitude highly,
because it's ambiguous, and fosters a 'beginner's mind'
in which there are more possibilities than in an 'expert's mind'."
~ Theresa Bayer 

 

I had the pleasure of doing an alcohol ink on Yupo demo
sponsored by Legion Paper at a local art club on Monday.

  
I was able to view the awesome art that these dedicated
seniors were working on when I first arrived. I could see that
the group was comprised of some very accomplished artists.

  
All were very attentive and eager to learn something new.

There was so much enthusiasm and so many great questions.
I just love those qualities!

OMG! I LOVE my job!!

Thanks to Marc Schotland and Legion Paper

for making these demonstrations possible! 

And thanks to the inspiring group of artists from the

Leisuretowne Art Club for having me.
 

"We don't stop playing because we grow old.

Thanks so much for stopping by and for

helping me spread the joy of painting on Yupo paper!

Have a great day and happy creating!

About Sandy - Experimenting and playing with alcohol inks has brought more fun into life, turbocharged the imagination and sparked my creative soul. My wish is that through learning, loving and creating, it will do the same for you! The launch of my e-course ushered in new beginnings and adventures. My advice to the artists I teach is to lighten up, be your own best friend, enjoy your art and focus on the process of creating. As Emerson said; "Scatter joy!" See more about Sandy here:
