New tools have appeared from artist Bina Shah ! Thanks Bina.These are fantastic natural nibs made of bamboo and crafted at the tip by Bina I’ve already found that they give me a huge variety of marks.I’m really interested in making my own asemic writing which is my way of describing sounds. So it’s a unique language of marks which I can collage onto my artwork or draw directly onto the surface. These marks are drawn in black ink. The subject matter was bird song. I’m thinking that I need to spend lots of time listening to and drawing my interpretation of their song before I’m satisfied with the quality of mark making.Sound has always been of interest for me especially in my photography.......but that’s another story to tell you some other time.#asemicwriting #artistsoninstagram #artwork #artoftheday #art #contemporaryart #bambooplant #bamboostick #inkdrawing #creativemarkmaking #interpretingsound #inventedlanguage #markmaking #mark #collageart #collageartwork #artforyourhome #artismypassion #inspiredbylandscape #thelanguageofsound (at Marsh Lane, Derbyshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNGIPTaHxtJ/?igshid=16giw7g5net4e

‘Plein air’ painting today which was fabulous given the temperature at Barlow Country Club was 15 degrees! What an afternoon. It was fabulous. I Used mixed media - acrylic, compressed charcoal, oil pastel and watercolour. Just perched my sketchbook on a wall, filled my yoghurt pot with pond water, took a caddy with me which held everything I needed. Responded to sounds, the toad walking by .... Ho Ho and the woodland in front of me. Spring has sprung at last and it makes me smile again. I’ll cut this painting up and others too and hatch them together as a collage ! This brings new shapes, colour combinations and creative possibilities which might be used to develop a painting on paper,canvas or board. We’ll see what I can make happen,who knows , the creative pathway takes on many turns and forms. It’s a unique process for every artist. What would you do? By the way ...... my first newsletter is about to be emailed in the next few days ... sign up on my website - https://lynnegreenstreet.art/ I’ll be writing them every 2 months hopefully and you’ll be first to here about sale offers and new developments in my creative process. #creativeprocess #inspiredbylandscape #mixedmedia#pleinair #expressiveart #intuitiveart #intuitivepainting #artistsoninstagram #art#artoftheday #lynnegreenstreet # (at Barlow Country Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMfeELUnoc_/?igshid=7k3yzxljfn61
