Ailsa Brims Art latest update

Welcome to my Autumn Newsletter

It's been a few weeks since I wrote, as ever lots going on! In September I started intuitive drawing using acrylic inks and watercolours whilst I was on holiday and couldn't take my paints. This led to a new daily practice of dropping some inks or watercolours onto paper, and then using a black pen to define some shapes using a neurographic method. I have played with various ways of doing this and it has become a very enjoyable daily practice.

More of what I've been up to in my recent work section of my website.

In the studio...

I finished the painting above "There are no more words" this morning - it is my largest yet, taking advantage of a gift of some old canvases I was able to work more freely than I might have done if I was using an expensive new one! It's only an exploratory piece, but I like where this is going and will be starting a new one very soon.

Below is an example of my daily drawing practice - all sorts of little creatures and eyes appear whilst I am working!

Last night's drawing, A4, acrylic ink and pen.
