Carmen writes with lots of "inky drippy goodness" on her paintings and I love it! But when I tried it, I didn't like it as well on my painting. In the second one, I left the canvas flat while I wrote to minimize the drips. I love the look of writing with a dip pen -- I'll definitely be working with my dip pens to "perfect" this technique!
This painting is still very much in Carmen's style, but I felt a bit more free as I worked on it. It was inspired by an Untitled painting of Carmen's (Sorry, I couldn't get a direct link to it). I had more fun with this one than I did with the previous two, so I think I may be edging more into my own style here. I'll definitely be working on more paintings like this one.

You've done so well with these Cindy! Your style? It emerges as you go...you can be influenced by many artists and I don't see any of these as being exactly like Carmen's...these are Cindy's all the way!
Great colour choices and I really like the 3rd one!
Love these Cindy!!! Especially the last one. I can see you "let go" a little and just let it emerge!
Happy New Year!
xo,
Carmen
