I’ve been using black papers quite a bit lately, mostly with metallic and gel pens. But I’m also painting with gouache now. I’m still learning how to use it to effect, and a Bird of Paradise seemed like a fantastic subject to practice on.

Artist Ambassador for Zebra Pens. I'm a self-taught artist who dances about with all sorts of artistic mediums. My main loves are Watercolor, Zentangle and Ballpoint pen. The subjects of my work are many and varied and change at whim. I'm a little bit crazy, but doesn't that come with being an artist? At my Life Imitates Doodles Blog, I post a list of resource links for Tangles, Tutorials and Giveaways two times a week. I also write reviews, hold giveaways and share my art work.
