Kicking off my 100 Day Project with some messy marks in my favorite color! Spraying water on the wet ink makes some of the marks spread out. The finished paper has the yummiest crinkly sound. I’ll be creating mark making patterns in my art journal for the next 100 days. I hope you’ll follow along. #100daysofmarkmakingpatterns #the100dayproject #markmaking

This little printing exercise is perfect if you don’t have a gel plate. It’s a quick, organic way to create beautiful collage papers and spark new ideas for mark making. It’s one of the techniques I teach inside the Creative Blend Art Program. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ All you need is palette paper and fluid acrylic paint. If you don’t have palette paper, you can try baking paper, the shiny side of freezer paper, brown paper bags, deli paper, waxed paper, or silicone sheets. It’s all about playing with what you already have and enjoying the process. Have you tried something like this? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #mixedmediaart #gelprintinginspiration #creativemarkmaking

Abstract artist Naqsh Raj explores the connection and evolution between visual aesthetics and ethics.⁠ ⁠ Using both mechanical and manual techniques, complexity and natural rhythm emerge from simple mark-making and are emphasized by washes of dark color.
