For Nicky©Angela Porter 22 Feb 2012

What to do when one has lost one’s voice … do the class homework to create a mandala for another person of course! (Yes, I know I’m going to end up having to do one for each of you my class…)

Approx. 6.5″/16cm in diameter.

Sakura Glaze outlines. Colour from Derwent metallic pencils and Derwent ‘Coloursoft’ pencils blended, with metallic paint highlights.

Today’s abstract psychedelic crazy art is…

6.5″ x 9.25″ approx.

Sakura Glaze pen outline, various metallic pencils, paints and pens to fill in the design.

Totally lack inspiration for a title for this piece.  Inspiration from observations of ammonites, Romanesque and Gothic architecture, formanifera, leaf skeletons, webs…and just my imagination and intuitive way of creating art.  Turning black into glorious colour once again!

Cornucopia 2

Approx. 26cm x 19cm.

Black technical drawing pens, Inktense pencils with water wash, metallic gold watercolour paint and gold Uniball pen.

This has kept me busy the last four days while I’ve been off work with tonsillitis.

Lots of gold on this one, not that the scan shows it up well, but it works out nicely, I think, if a tad fussy and ornately.
