Last night Danielle and Aunt Julie did some ink blowing. Aunt Julie was going to her book club, so they made some bookmarks for her to take to her friends. Today Danielle has the stomach flu!

About Me
- april
- My love of nature and love of paper have influenced my love of drawing, painting and making things for as long as I can remember. For me, there is excitement in the visual pleasure I get from copying the beauty of nature. The colors. The gentleness. With my artwork, I seek to inspire and enlighten the viewer.

Aaaaawwwwww!!! I hope the flu doesn't last long!! It must be going around lately!! I hope you don't catch it April! Beautiful bookmarks!!!
Love the ink blowing. It is so playful and the results have almost a japanese feel to them.
Sending Danielle some healing thoughts across the miles!
I hope Danielle is feeling better. The ink blowing is facinating. Do you just use regular ink and paper. Or is it an artist's secret?
I hope I don't get it too, Robin. But it'll be a real miracle if I don't.
I love it too, Bev. Thanks for thinking of Danielle.
Thanks Audrey! And no secret about the ink. We used sumi ink at the art retreat, but I just used India ink with Danielle and her poster paints. The paints just have to be juicy enough. Add water. And just any kind of straws. Experiment - put the drop where you want the design to start and blow, from below if you want it to travel up. Then just keep blowing at the wet spots. Try blowing straight on, if you want a blooming spidery effect.
Just lovely! I'm sure Danielle is back on the road recovered, how are you?
