I was looking through some old artwork recently for design inspiration. When I came across the designs I had made for PapayaArt a few years ago, I couldn't resist taking some paint to them.The papers seemed so flat to me. Here's what the paper above looked like originally:
I submitted the papers to Anahata and then she worked her graphic design magic and produced the final papers. Not having any luck finding a link to show you; I think they are all sold out (new collaborations are in the works).Here's another close up of the piece above after attacking it with ink:
Such a different feeling. Too bold for gift wrap, but it's coming alive now and will have a new purpose...not sure what yet. Not worried about that, just playing. Here's another original as it was submitted . They started as 22x30 watercolor papers.
And after playing on top with some ink:
Just an exercise in loosening up. That, and allowing myself to mess with something that I thought was finished before. It served it's purpose and now it's onto other things...
