The dinosaur roars

I actually created my first AI video with Meta AI. It shows a roaring dinosaur. The video is based on a ballpoint sketch of a crocodile which AI interpreted as a dinosaur. Meta AI offers to animate your images, and so I accepted this offer and here it is:

 

Mixed media abstract painting

Actually I used three media in this piece:

• liquid watercolors, also called watercolor ink
• acrylic inks
• a black alcohol marker.
  
  This piece is a typical "what does happen when I do that and that" piece. I wanted to experiment with color mixing regarding the acrylic inks, and I wanted to experiment with mark making using a black alcohol marker. All this was done on mixed media paper DIN A 5 size. 

The acrylic inks I used were all kinds of inks: I mostly used Molotow refills and a tube of Titan White from a One Euro shop. 

Some weeks ago I had tried out something with watercolor inks and watercolor brush pens. Then I had stopped working on the painting. A few days ago I was considering throwing the sheet into the bin, but then I felt the urge to try and do something with it. I grabbed some molotow refills, a container with water, a plastic container which once had served as a joghurt container for color mixing and a brush. The result you can see in the image above.
 

Liquid Watercolors

I managed to create five paintings done with markers and liquid watercolors in the month of March. In each of the paintings markers and liquid watercolors play a different part. In my last painting, which you can see on the left I only used one marker for the background and on one or two tiny spots. The rest of the painting is done with liquid watercolors. I absolutely enjoyed color mixing, although I find it much more difficult than mixing with tube paints.
