Ok just a quickie on this Sunday... My friends mom asked me to do a painting that she was gonna gift to one of her friends. (lol reading that it sounds so convoluted) Anyway she wanted a seafoam green background, and blue/violet jellies. Now I been having problems with this watercolor paper buckling one me..so I decided to try and tape the hell out of it, worked a lot better than I had been doing previously.. it's just you can never get the paper 100% flats again and my ocd hates that hahaha. No stencils on this one, the jellyfish are fun to freehand. Acrylic paint and ink pen... maybe some watercolor penicls.
Here's the little tape setup I got going....
And then the mess...
I used a transparent shiny paint to layer over the jellies so they would catch the light....
And a little close up....
And here's those pens I use again...
In the end my friend's mom kept this one for herself. She told me i'm gonna have to do another one hahahaha.
Thanks for checking out the art
