Alice in Wonderland- Themed Mixed Media: Water Color & Ink


I accepted an art challenge to create Alice in Wonderland- themed art using abstract watercolor splotches as the base, under-painting or prompt.  These two pieces emerged from the splotches pictured below each piece, splotched by my artist friend.  I saw the characters within, and used pen, marker and paint to bring them out.

  1. Loving these. They remind me a little of Stefan Buchers Daily Monsters

    1. Figures you would! The rabbit has a Tony Clifton vibe to him.
      Think you've shown me that site before, but I need to see it again.
