February forum challenge

This is really good Jenny. I’ve never had much luck with cling film but I can see how it suits the challenge.

This is great jenny, good idea. I was thinking about breaking a snowflake down into shapes....or something similar. I’ve just used cling film on a painting of a red cabbage, it works well to create the creases in the leaves.

Works well Jenny

I was looking at this on the forum and it looks great.

Thank you Katy, Fiona, John and Denise! I will also definitely try something new - it’s an interesting challenge, lots of ideas. (I think this worked quite well because the Claybord is smooth and not very absorbent, so the ink settled into fairly sharp patterns. I love experimenting with acrylic ink and cling film.)

I do like this a lot Jenny.

A great start to the February challenge Jenny, might give this a go with the Brusho.

Task achieved - like this a lot!

Many thanks Paul, Linda and Heather!

Love this effect Jenny. How do you find claybord?

Looks freezing!

Thanks Carole and Louise! I bought Claybord thinking I could use it for watercolour, but it’s like painting on Yupo paper. I realised I should have got Aquabord for watercolour - I’ve bought some, but not tried it yet. The Claybord is great for acrylic inks and you can scratch or sand back the surface to erase any areas you don’t like. I added lots of layers of green to this, still using cling film, and turned it into a forest scene. Keep meaning to try some more, I bought several of the boards.

Intriguing! Not tried this though vaguely aware of the process. Perhaps one for the future?

Thanks, Frank - yes, definitely worth a go - it’s fun to try different things!

Fantastic frosty textures Jenny. Learnt something new, clayboard added to shopping list :-)

Thanks, Anjana, and also for the info. in your latest post on DS Lunar Blue - one for my shopping list! I love the DS range, most of my watercolours are now DS. My favourite blue is Mayan Blue Genuine.
