I realized this was supposed to be monochromatic, not achromatic so I mounted this on a light bluish colored card stock.
I channeled my inner afro hippy painter to attempt a little painting for the second time ever in my life outside of grade school. Unfortunately, my inner hippy didn't tell me how to make the breakwater. I used my kidÂ’s white acrylic paint mixed with black dye ink. This was due to the fact that the kidÂ’s black acrylic paint was dry.
For the water I used All-Purpose Ink for fantast/x in 71 platinum, a gift from a friend a couple years ago. The tree is Plant Hope by SU. The sky is chalk. The inspiration is from B&W photographs by Michael Kenna.
All this being said, it may be absurd to think anyone cares! Bwahahahahaha!
Extra thought: I am open to any comments that would teach me more or give me tips.
