Perfect for a big rustic frame...

Had a nice chunky frame that I am in the process of cleaning up and giving a nice soft shine finish.  Then I did this 8 x 10 to put in it.  Thought the rough rocks and orange sky would suit the frame.  I'm calling it 'Waterfall"

Revised water scene...

This  is one that I had done at the beginning of my adventure with these inks, and I didn't like the sky.  But I kept learning and experimenting, and used canned air to make waves, and a q-tip to mess up and smooth out that stormy sky.  Then I added rocks for the waves to have something to splash against.  Now I like it...

 

Beach Themes....love them

We spend time at the beach in Rhode Island every summer, and at the CT. beaches when we can. 

These yearly trips make for lots of inspiration.   Pushing around the inks to make interesting skies is great fun.  I used liquid mask to make a clean spot to put in the seagull.

The mask idea worked here for the pelican, too.  Really had fun making a vibrant sky and trying to get some reflection in the water.
