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.
