Alcohol Ink on Yupo
I was free to explore on my own, after the demo, so I deferred to my primary colors. I feel safe with good ole red, yellow and blue.

The surface was wet with ink, so I applied clear alcohol to the foam stamp and impressed it into the blue. It picked up color. I put it back on the surface and impressed and picked up again, moving across the page. Then I added droplets of yellow in the whitened areas and finally red in the stamping closest to us. Entirely a learning experience.

    I've used this stamp in every medium, just to try it out. It's one of my favorites. It tells me a lot about how to use each medium, as well.
