Inktober 2016, Week 3
Monday, October 24th, 2016
Three Inktober weeks down, one to go! It was another week full of Grand Days Out, so there’s a lot of easy stuff and a bit of more complex ink art. Some of these will be available as cards, some of them will be in a bookmark sale for my email list next month, and some of them are already spoken for.
Inktober day 17: autumn leaves for Kim
Inktober day 18: X-Men comic cover for Dami (and also a silly local cover contest)
Inktober day 19: Cat Butt Zen
Inktober day 20: Headache Fish
Inktober day 21: TARDIS with a cat flap for Eric
Inktober day 22: Rainy Day Forest for Molly
Inktober day 23: Sherlock holiday card design

Autumn Winds

Autumn Winds by Amy Crook, $299
I’m saving the Weeble this week for Friday, so instead you get a windy Wednesday. This piece uses tea, salt, watercolor, and pen and ink to create a whirlwind of color and shapes that reminded me of leaves tumbling around and around in a little eddy of breeze. I added in the rust-red Japanese maple leaves to add color and strengthen that impression.
Autumn Winds, 7″x5″ mixed media on paper, $299, framed, with free shipping.
Here you can see a close-up of the spot where leaf and salt pool collide; I used my brown pen and very little color leeched out into the salt, making the pools a subtle addition of texture and sparkle rather than a focal color point.

This piece looks great in its brown wooden frame, the colors really go well together. It will arrive at your door framed and in upcycled gift wrap, safely packaged for transit.
