Recuerda a qué olía, cómo era la ropa que llevaba y qué sentiste al ver que se despojaba de ella. Recuerda cómo palpitaba tu corazón, si era de día o de noche
I wanted to introduce the class to masking fluid, to show the class how the use of it can allow the artist to free up the background for wet rich wash techniques without worrying about losing your "whites" ie: the light colors areas. I also added a liberal use of salt to add detail; to the background. Laying in the background can be intimidating, when you worry about losing the wet edge or destroying whites. Here is my new second version of the carp scene using the masking fluid, in varying stages. Stage one you put the masking fluid on the whole carp and ripple bubbles. Stage 2 The masking fluid is rubbed off. Stage 3 more masking fluid is applied within the fish for highlights or "whites" then the fish is toned freely with washes. Stage 4 Is final toning and details. Lastly to make the fish look underwater, I lightly glaze over the fish with a thin wash of cobalt blue and viridian to "push" the fish down under the waterline leaving a bit of the original color in a few choice areas to make the fish appear to be bobbing up to the surface to eat or the fins rising as they do during their movements
Immerse yourself in the warmth of Castlebay Harbour as it basks in the golden glow of the setting sun, captured here in this striking abstract print. Drenched in a palette of radiant yellows, rich ambers, and soothing greys, the piece portrays the tranquil water mirroring the fractured light, offering a tapestry of colour that dances across the canvas. The print portrays the harbour's peaceful demeanour, with geometric shapes assembling to form the quaint cottages nestled upon the rugged coastline. The composition offers viewers an enchanting mosaic where the boundaries between the tangible and the imagined blur. The golden hour's diffused light is masterfully represented, softening the edges and enveloping the scene in a dream-like quality that promises to transform any space into a serene haven. In this abstract rendition, the union of light and reflection is interrupted only by the linear divisions, suggesting both harmony and a subtle complexity within the harbour's essence. The sun, a serene orb in the sky, serves as a focal point, its soft luminescence infusing life into the depicted structures and water, testament to the fleeting beauty of twilight's magic hour. Each block of colour, while distinct, contributes to a cohesive whole, presenting a canvas that is as much an invitation to contemplation as it is a visual delight. As part of our 'Scottish Harbours' collection, this print is an ode to the captivating beauty of Scotland's maritime landscapes, abstracted to stir the soul and enchant the eye. Whether gracing a home, an office, or a gallery wall, it invites repeated viewings, with each glance revealing a new layer of detail and a fresh surge of emotion, tied intrinsically to the rugged charm of Scottish shores.
As you might've realized from our publications on the Facebook group 'What in the $20 wish tattoo machine is this?' or the 'That's It, I'm Inkshaming' group, sadly, subpar tattoos are pretty common. Which makes the good ones even more admirable.

Immerse yourself in the tranquil essence of the Scottish Highlands with this enthralling abstract piece, rife with the vivacity of Mountain avens set against the serene lochan backdrop of iconic Glencoe. Every brushstroke captures the dynamic beauty of the highland tapestry, infusing the canvas with a symphony of abstract forms and swathes of colour that evoke the enigmatic allure of nature's untouched splendour. The foreground comes alive with exuberant yellow and orange flowers, their form simplified yet striking, suggesting a gentle breeze through their delicate petals. The mirrored calmness of the lochan reflects the majesty of the looming mountains, their peaks softened by the abstract interpretation which lends a dreamlike quality to the rugged terrain. A tapestry of greens, blues, and earth tones suggests the lush, varied vegetation, with subliminal textures adding depth and interest. Bright highlights emulate the sparkle of sunlight on water, while the receding tones of blue and violet mountains meld with the sky, hinting at the vast, open space and pure highland air. This print serves as both a statement piece and a sanctuary for contemplation, inviting you to gaze into the depths of Glencoe’s timeless landscape as reimagined through this expressive, modern abstraction. It is an ode to the wild beauty of the Scottish wilderness, interpreted with an eye for contemporary style that will captivate and inspire.

Immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of a serene Scottish port with this exquisite print inspired by the picturesque Portree Harbour on the Isle of Skye. Adorned with the distinctively fluid and ornamental lines characteristic of the Art Nouveau aesthetic, the artwork invites you to a realm where style and nature dance in harmony. The piece features a harmonious composition that captures the timeless allure of Portree’s waterfront. At the forefront, a majestic sailing boat with gracefully curved sails basks in the glow of twilight. The warm oranges and reds of its hull contrast with the deep blues of the water, creating a vibrant yet soothing focal point. Nestled gently behind it, smaller boats bob on the water's gentle ripples, their reflections a delicate ballet of colour and light. Beyond the immediate charms of the harbour, a row of charming houses with distinct European facades painted in pastels of yellow, orange, and pink stretches graciously along the quayside. Their whimsically stylised windows and roofs reflect a playfulness inherent to the Art Nouveau period. These architectural delights are maternal figures to the cobalt sea, cradled by soft reflections that add an ethereal quality to the still waters. The dramatic, purplish-blue mountainous backdrop looms protectively over the scene, subtly bending to the stylistic curves that define this artistic movement. Shadows blend with the natural architecture to create a sense of comforting enclosure, bringing an intimate feel to the otherwise expansive setting. This captivating print belongs to the 'Scottish Harbours' series, showcasing a magnificent blend of natural splendour with the elegance of human habitation, through a lens that transcends time. It's more than a visual treasure; it's a portal to a dreamlike Scottish haven, offering viewers an escape to a world where nature’s majesty and human creativity reside in perfect symphony. Add this piece to your collection and let it convey the enchanting spirit of Scotland's historic ports with every delicate line and radiant hue.
