Apple Picking in Maine

Such an amazing weekend at Trewgory Apple Orchard in Levant, Maine!

We took a walk around to look at the trees and headed out to do some Apple Picking and checked out the Corn maze at Trewgory Apple Orchard in Levant Maine. Ever seen Children of the corn movie by Stephen King? I just felt like I experienced it first hand. The corn maze this year was based on a wonderful Maine Children's book called:  "Blueberries for Sal"




Fall is definitely here this weekend and I am excited to show you how to paint a realistic
apple painting using alcohol inks! For the Alcohol Ink Apple Mini Course sign up HERE

Alcohol Ink Flower Illustration Painting

Watch the video here: Alcohol Ink Flower Illustration Painting

Check out this simple alcohol ink demo tutorial - Last week we did the watercolor version, so check it out to see the differences between the two mediums. It's super fun to try it in another medium.  Again less than 15 minute warm up, the perfect project for a daily journal.  

I have the full demo video up on my youtube channel.

Here is last weeks watercolor version. Both of these are a very quick exercise but let me know in the comments below which one you prefer. 

This is a super easy way to create a very whimsical grouping of flowers very quickly. I'm using the brand Pinata inks by jacquard here along with some Mineral paper. We start with a very simple flower shape and try it with a few colors. Add some green stems then let that dry. Once it's dry you can use a black sharpie pen to outline the shapes giving it  wonderful illustration quality. Try using a few different brushes to see how it changes the flowers. Try the inks very wet and then more dry to see the difference in details.

I do offer up a Full online course on how to paint a lilac and sunflower, if you want to paint along!

Thirty Painting in 30 Days - Day Six

"By The Silvery Moon"

8x10 Resin Art Panel

Medium: Alcohol Ink

$125

 

Taking a picture without the resin glare is a challenge!

Well, I've noticed during my daily frozen trips with the wind "just -a- whippin" (Maine accent) that Hobby Lobby is now out of the Liquid Art panels, OH NO!

They had 2 more on the shelf but they looked as though someone took a baby hammer to the edges. (I brought it to their attention) so hopefully they have a quick turn around on their products. I have my black and blue, no not bruised but ink stain fingers crossed. I told one of the clerks about it the day before and noticed them still sitting on the shelf looking up at me like a sad (never to be) beautiful art piece.

 Resin drying - you get a better idea of the depth of it in this picture.

Of course the crazy coupon lady in me was thinking hey I wonder if I can get this at a discount and fill it with some putty...paint it...(naw) and I snapped out of it..... too much work, must stay focused!

Off to start Day 7 for tomorrow, but my fingers are like little frozen blue raspberry popsicle's (what a visual huh.....remember my blue ink stains?) it's a whop-pin minus 2 degrees.

Why I Photograph the Painting's Progress - Squirrel Point Lighthouse, Maine

 Kellie Lynn Art Etsy Store - Find More Maine Art

Took a break from working with Alcohol Ink on Tiles an went for a larger

9x12" AI painting of Squirrel Point Lighthouse here in Bath Maine on Yupo paper.

Here's a hint that I like to use when I'm painting buildings such as a Maine Lighthouse or animals. Take pictures of your progress as you go! When I'm unsure of when and where to stop I find it best to photograph the painting and take a step back.

Once the photo of the painting is taken, I download it to my computer and view it on my screen. 

Sometimes I'll post my steps on Facebook too.

It really gives your eye a break and you can see things you didn't see before.

If you look at the bottom right hand side of the lighthouse in the second picture here, you can see it's off slightly. I also decided that the rocks need a bit more details for my taste.

Another great way is to see opportunity area's is to hold your painting up to a mirror and look at the reverse image.  It helps you see where lines just don't look right...they may be a bit off or need a slight adjustment.

~Happy Painting!
