⚜️🌀Day 14 of 31: This piece invites you to explore the harmony between fluidity and structure. Layers of deep and soft blues intertwine, creating an endless flow, while gold accents trace through the composition, offering moments of light and balance. The numeration-inspired design overlays it all, evoking time, order, and the quiet rhythm beneath the surface.

✨ Creative Day 13 of 31 ✨The delicate, murmuration-like pattern in this piece holds a special place in my creative journey. I first explored this idea back in 2019, inspired by the mesmerizing movement of starlings in flight—how they flow as one, yet each remains an individual. Revisiting this concept now feels like reconnecting with an old friend, layering it into the soft, earthy tones and quiet rhythms of this work.It’s a reminder of how interconnected moments, ideas, and experiences can come together over time, forming something both familiar and new.What does this piece bring to mind for you? ⚜️#TheFlowOfTime #AbstractArt #MurmurationInspired #CreativeJourney #NatureInArt #alcoholinkpainting #artistofthecarolinas #31daysofcreativepractice2025 #31daysofcreativepractice

Day 10 of 31 Days of Creativity // Today’s piece

Day 10 of 31 Days of Creativity //
Today’s piece evolved through layers of alcohol ink and iridescent watercolor, capturing the interplay of fluidity and light. A recurring theme in my work, clouds of murmurations find their way into this composition, adding movement and connection to the story. The palette—Payne’s gray, Naples yellow, and gold—grounds the piece in elegance and warmth, balancing depth with brilliance.Which part of the process speaks to you most—the flow, the shimmer, or the murmuration?

⚜️ Tempest — 14” x 20” — where deep reds meet stormy blues, and movement carries emotion across every layer. This piece feels both powerful and reflective with an iridescent silver lining — a moment caught in motion.

Day 7 of 31 Days of Creativity ⚜️
Today’s piece began with rich layers of green, neutral gray, and gold. At first, the colors felt bold—almost too bold. So, I let the alcohol flow, softening and fading the saturation until the composition found its balance. Sometimes, it’s in the quiet adjustments that a piece finds its voice.How does this one speak to you?#alcoholinkart #alcoholinks #31daysofcreativepractice2025 #31daysofcreativepractice
