Description
Nowadays, when I look around, I dream about a peaceful future more and more often. I'm not sure if it's possible at this point, but I still have hope.
I wanted to make this artwork shimmery and shiny to make it extra special - to make hope feel extra important.
I used Inktense pencils, metallic acrylic paints, black ink, metallic felt-tip pens, and rhinestones that I glued on in the end. The paper is cold pressed watercolor paper.
I tried to make a scan but I couldn't capture the shininess of the rhinestones so I chose to upload a short video here. I filmed it in the light of the morning sun and I think the sparkling effect really comes through.
I made a Youtube video about the thought processes behind this artwork, while my hands show you the work in progress steps. If you're interested, you can find it here.
I also wrote a Substack post about the materials I used, and included a few technical elements too. It's here, in case you'd like to check it out.
Thanks for stopping by!
Enchanting!✨💛✨
