Seaweed empty A hot cup of tea

A hot cup of tea overlooking the garden on a spring morning

Stylized bird on abstracted background

I didn’t know or understand the beauty of the high desert

reflecting a large eye

layering shapes and colors until I achieve the image that I want

Seaweed empty A hot cup of teaSeaweed is a very whimsical, fluid piece. The lines are matte and patchy in places. While the painting appears to be very light in color, there are deeper colors underneath. Danielle explains her process, I worked with this one for a while, layering lots of inks. After it dried I sprayed it down with water and drew the lines through. Next, I added the white acrylic paint as a final layer. The results were very pastel with an underwater quality to it.
