New blog post + a little video of some ink dying process. —{✨Link in profile✨}— It’s a technique that’s evolving all the while, having spent the last few weeks obsessed with this project I’m learning so much. In this post you can read the story of how I fell into this way of making art. .. #creativeprocess #artmakingprocess #recycledbookpages #collagepaper #inkandwater #dyedpaper #inkdyedpaper #dyedpaperbymixy

#accidentalart I’ve taken to drying off the rinsed inky stencils between sheets of tissue paper. Just cause there was a whole heap of it next to my desk and they kept dripping everywhere. Necessity being the mother of invention n all. Now I’ve got all these beautiful patterns that are just happening without any assistance from me! I love the silky side of tissue paper most. #ongoingexperimentswithink #dyedpaper #inkandwater #inkystencils #tissuepaperandink

The ink blob family is growing, next dude is a bit ethereal, floating off into the page. Then this delightful mermaid showed up, and a dog with a cool hat. #selfpopulatingsketchbook #inkblobscomingtolife #whoarethesepeople #sbpv14 #sketchbookproject2019 #madeupanimals

Good morning. I just found this little guy breaking free from a blob of ink. I sense he has some important adventures ahead. #watchthisspace #sketchbookproject2019 #sbpv14 #sbp2019 #inkblob

It’s cold today. I’m tucked up under my fluffy blanket while I fold up squares of ink dyed paper. Keep warm/cool friends. Happy weekend. #inkdyedpaper #myhappyplace #recycledbookpages #newlifeforoldbooks #dyedpaperbymixy #bluesandgreens #paperart #mixedmediaart

Today is also a day of fresh cool blues: Oceanscapes & clouds. After a few weeks of #allthecolours #allatonce #allovertheplace I’ve fallen back into the color rhythm I picked up in #twelvty , trotting around the color wheel. Last week I was awash with pinky purples, and they lead me into violets and then blues. Here I am today I my happy place: the colors of peacocks and mermaids. #alltheshadesofblue #recycledbookpages #dyedpaperbymixy #organicpatterns
