Day 25 – August Arty Challenge – I Will Go With The Flow
This one is my favourite so far. And perhaps that’s because I really did just go with the flow — quite literally! With alcohol inks, you can guide them a little, but ultimately they have a mind of their own. They flow, they merge, they wander off in unexpected directions… and rather than trying to control what was happening, I simply worked with it. No fixed plan, no fighting it, no trying to make it look like something I’d already decided it should be. I just watched what happened and responded. And I LOVE where it ended up!
There’s a little life lesson in there somewhere, isn’t there? Sometimes the best things happen when we loosen our grip on the outcome, trust the process, and work with what comes our way.

I love this technique, Barb, and philosophy! Unpredictable art is so much fun, as are alcohol inks and gel plates. Beautiful final artwork, Barb. I’m loving these little video tutorials, so much fun, so much inspiration. Thank you. 😊👍🏻
Yes the inks flowed too. .Loved the finished card. Thank you Barbara. I will be sorry when the month ends.
