Using White Ink on Black Paper

Trying a new type of drawing

Since being back in Canada, my art supply collection has grown considerably. It’s so nice to be able to walk into a place like Michaels and find any art supply that I could ever dream of. While traveling, it is always difficult to locate supplies and even harder to find anything of quality.

Something that I did the last time we were in Canada in 2019 was paint and draw on black paper. Since then, along the way, I have given away many of these pieces of art. They make a great gift and if people show interest in my artwork, I pull them out and ask if they want one.

It’s fun to leave bits and pieces of my artwork with the people we meet. Hopefully, they will enjoy them and they will remind them of the fun times we had together while we were there.

But over time, my supply of artwork has dwindled and I haven’t been creating more. So I decided to rectify that and make some more pieces so that I can take them with me when we leave again.
