Thanks all, you have encouraged me no end :)

Great one Carole - did you use granulation fluid? When I started in the use of inks in a style not so far removed from yours I did quite a bit of research via Youtube etc and could find nothing by anyone along these lines. Unless you know better I think we must be two f a kind. Makes you feel kinda smug don'it !

Very effective Carole smashing colours and flow, nice one.

Thank you very much. Michael there's one or two or more artists use this technique, Ann Blockley, Jane Betteridge are the two I like best. Look them up as they have DVDs too.

Lovely semi abstract painting Carole. The colour of these poppies is gorgeous.

Posted by Syd Edward on Tue 08 Mar 11:08:30

Thanks Carole - yes I am aware of the work of AB and JB, both great artists, but they rarely work in the abstract field their nearest works being more of a semi-abstract nature. Certainly their techniques do differ from those I adopt although I have no doubt there is some cross-over along the way.
