Hummingbird Homecoming

Pencil, ink and marker on paper scratching back and forth in a cacophony of sound and color finally comes to rest to be called Hummingbird Homecoming.

The sound alone was a beautiful thing. Sometimes when I paint the end results may not be anything like my usual work and it may not be a great piece of art but the experience is simply priceless. The best way to describe this piece is mixed media with scribble madness. I cut lose on this painting and it felt WONDERFUL.

How I did it: I started out with a drawing I did digitally then I printed it on textured paper and added colored pencil, ink and marker. After that I put it back on the computer and enhanced colors here and there. I put a soft filter over it to give the painting a more fluid look and clicked save.

    Well done Magdalene. Loved your process. It is the way it should be. The process of struggle, and finally, success.
