Yupo seems good for monoprints. I did this series on problems from climate change. This one is called Consequences.
Another one of the prints
Monoprints on Climate Change
Yupo is fun to work with. I made three prints off the original, and then painted back into them.
Two pcs. are translucent and two are white. I love the translucent ones held up to the light, but haven’t quite figured how to do that display. Anyway, the first received my wrath, I really laid into it, since I can’t affect who is annoying me. There was so much paint that it was oozy. Ever the miser, I tried my first monoprint, tho I guess technically they are tri_prints.
Feel the Breath
I’m learning meditation. I have seen benefits, but I still have a long way to go!
Lxii9-Landslide
Our front yard has slid, been repaired, and is sliding again. And of course it’s raining! This canvas is about not having control. There are bits of charcoal embedded in the paint.
I like Yupo
This is used mostly for watercolors. I use acrylics. Then I abuse it, spraying with water and scraping. I am not a fussy painter, and this stuff seems to want to play.
XSPen
This is a self portrait on an experimental ground. I added bits of charcoal. I was annoyed with the lack of maintenance on the building that my studio is in. Thank goodness, the toiIets work again. I
think this is a pretty accurate description of my frustration.
Forecast- Rain, again
Rain and early fog make for a gray painting. This one started with lots of charcoal lines before any paint.
Distress, Distract, Woodpecker
Needless to say, this is about some different things.
Storm’s Coming
I started this last summer. I used silver Sharpie to highlight storm clouds, but it bothered me. I added more paint.
Birth
Forty years ago I was pregnant. Then I was a mother. Thru ups and downs we’re both still here.
