Abstract ink and acrylic

This abstract piece was done with a layer of acrylic paint first. The texture was achieved with paper towels pressed into the wet paint. I liked how it looked, but it just didn't seem finished. After some contemplation, I added some rings with acrylic ink. They didn't stand out enough, so I filled them in with drops and swirls of more acrylic ink.

  1. I absolutely love this. I love the way you mix media for depth and dimension. This reminds me of Christmas balls on the tree, reflecting elements of the room surrounding them.
