Sacred Altering: Adventures in Experimental Art
by Stacy Wills
I love experimenting (aka "playing!") with different techniques and methods of creating art. This has been one of those weeks where I have been "learning by doing." I hope you will enjoy seeing what emerged as I used some of my existing alcohol ink artwork and a few photographs as source images for my "sacred altering" process. Sometimes...most times...I get so lost in the process that I have no idea how I arrived at certain images...but that doesn't deter me from trying again and again. A crop here, a tweak there...a filter...a flip...a blur...polar co-ordinates...the vibrant colors melding...blending...whirling together...like dervishes...discs...orbs...desert suns...butterflies...angel wings...and then, I have to stop awhile and catch my breath...before the next "what if I..." has me off and running again.
Beautiful Stacy! I am so inspired by your continuous exploration into creativity and the joy evident in your art.
