NoFor these painting ideas I used the pour method. But I have to admit it was the poor man’s pour because I haven’t got silicone and all kinds of oils to create cells .
So instead I used water and just wind as I gracefuly waved the painting around so that the liquid paint would just move languidly along the surface of the paper.
During this mesmerising time I watched as the trickles move down the sheet. On noticing the decorative dynamic I would be wondering what shapes they would make.
But hey presto the colours of sky blue and sea blue themselves nicely unite to form one of those popular wave scenes that we often see in acrylic pours.
I also did a bit of digital modification of my painting. See below. You see I discovered that with my new fangled phone I’m able to create artworks albeit basic but digital artworks just by using my thumb and finger and the different kinds of tools that the drawing app provides. I was pleasantly surprised to see that I was able to create more original work by blending my traditional acrylic painting skills with the more modern digital art technology that you can find on your mobile phone. It has helped me capture the drama of stormy seas and how vulnerable I would feel in a boat. I guess it is a nod to the need to respect the sea. These sea waters can look beautiful while being dangerous at the same time.
