I found him on Substack. His name is Paul Wang. I think he’s in Vietnam, but his posts are from all over the world.
Paul Wang calls himself a traveling urban sketcher. He posted this water color/ plastic wrap technique 3 days ago.
I also found this creative workout from June 3 to be very interesting. It’s called, “No More Monday Moos.” I have no idea what that means, but I’m looking forward to more of this man’s art instruction.
Talk about a rabbit hole!
It’s almost time for my monthly Shutterstock subscription to roll over again. If I don’t choose 10 images to download, I lose them, and my money.
The problem is not finding 10 images, it’s choosing 10 images. The one above inspired a new collection category, “Color Combinations.”
That search took me down and around the rabbit hole! I chose the following image because it’ll make a great greeting card:
I check to see the artist’s name. This one is by Marish. I clicked her name to see what else she has that I might like. Down another hole. I found lots I like, but only chose two more:
Now, that’s only 4. I had chosen some others, earlier. Currently, though, my eyes are glazed and burning. Maybe I’ll share the others in a future post, maybe as part of a collage! I have purchased the licenses.
The big screen is a large tv from my friend, Laura. We love You Tube art and craft videos, and when we’re at my house, in the den/study, we’ve been watching on a very small tv. We might as well set up an iPad.
Froyle is Froyle Davies, the first gel print artist that I ever watched. She turns her gel prints into fantastic collages!
She is a joy to watch! She is animated and full of laughter. Her New Zealand accent is icing on the cake.
I watched this episode first, today.
She compared three weights of Gelelf’s new image transfer papers.
They all worked beautifully.
To learn how to transfer images onto the gel plate, be sure to watch this episode. Warning: she makes it look easy. It’s not! I’ve had two successful image transfers. I’ll share them another time.
I’m going to try, again, and send you all good wishes if you decide to give it a go!
Today, I accompanied my husband to Moh’s surgery. An old motorcycle burn on his lower leg left a scar that turned into a squamous cell sarcoma. It presented as a white scaly patch the size and shape of a silver dollar. The surgeon got it all first cut. Still, that and a trip to the pharmacy took most of the day.
I did get home in time to catch Karen McKoy’s live stream. Karen is an artist who is also a grief counselor. Her art channel is called, Slapping Paint on Paper
I found her through friends in the chat of PMartist Studio. Her words of wisdom have been invaluable to me, and I am grateful.
