My first serious 'art affair' was with alcohol ink on tile.... it was a wild and crazy ride! I love to let the ink flow and move, and I love to move it across the smooth ceramic tile with anything but a brush! SO, I thought I'd lost that excitement in watercolor but what I'm discovering is that every time I learn something new that really makes me giddy I realize there is almost always something there that reminds me of the feeling I used to get with the alcohol inks. Recently I am reminded by artist Jean Haines about the joy of flowy swooshy colors and gravity! It's like a relationship... the way artist and medium get to know each other - learn to work together - ebb and flow - each one giving up some control to the other, but learning how to negotiate.
