india ink is awesome. and so are chia pets.

So I have been redoing a collage for my design class for two 2 days now. Yesterday I worked on it from 2:00 pm until 10 pm. No joke. Today I've decided to take it a little more easy. I've only been working on it for a few hours, but ironically I have decided to tear the whole thing apart (for the 3rd time) and start from the beginning once again. But I did use my Exact-O knife to cut out the pieces and shapes I wanted to keep. So I suppose I'm a little bit ahead of the ballgame this time. Before I decided to trash the collage, I found something interesting. I have been using a lot of India Ink to outline and form drips on the bristol. I thought it might look cool to mix some watered down white acrylic, matte medium, and India Ink to add to the collage. Just take a gander at what the different ingredients created. I love it.




And a more far away look. My personal favorite image of the two.




Well, I hope everyone had a most wonderful Thanksgiving and ate plenty of food (NOT including animal products). Speaking of animals, since my mother tragically refuses to let me own a real kitten, this is what I got for Thanksgiving instead. Peace, Love, India Ink, & Chia Pets everyone!
