Papers can be SO bossy sometimes and yet other times they try to send subliminal messages instead. I think they were in cahoots with the ink this time.

Hi Again.....

Last night I didn't saunter over to the art table till about 10 o'clock. I don't go to bed till midnight, so I still had a little time and didn't want to do nuthin else.

I didn't have anything at all in mind to do, but.... there were my inks I hadn't played with really, so I cut some more whole sheets in half and began to play.

I had seen some folks spray rubbing alcohol on some inks and they ran out in fun ways. I wasn't trying to make anything particular, just see how they reacted, so I lazily put on a color, sprayed it lightly and sometimes turned the paper around and around different ways watching it run.... and then run together. No big deal.... right?

I was having a pleasant time.

Then I started this one and came to a point where I decide to add some black. It was quite unpleasant looking to my eyes and don't worry, I won't ask you to hang it on your frig. LOL I did however see characters of a sort in the black parts. I think the bottom left may be road kill... maybe a deer because it looks like it has antlers. There was also a figure dancing on the bottom right in his zulu costume. Then I thought maybe he was running instead, away from whatever that is coming after him from the middle. You see all that... right ? I also see a purple wolf above the road kill, only maybe it wasn't the road that got it, maybe it was the purple wolf.

😂

THEN !!... as I was putting the stopper back into the little bottle of black ink, I turned it over ! I grabbed for it, but the ink is so thin that I believe half of it may have run out before I could get the bottle back up right. Arrggggghhhhhhh......then I had to stop playing and deal with that and ....

I first took a spare dropper and tried to suck as much of it up to go back in the bottle as I could. It worked some, but not as good as I had hoped. Right as I was about to wipe the rest up with a paper towel, I realized I should be using some of the other paper to blot it up, so I didn't really lose it all. I could use the paper later as a base for something else. Good idea ! yeah... so that's what I did. Actually, I thought it was never going to quit coming up.

This is what happened, several papers with random designs where I blotted here and there and corners and ... and....then it hit me, the ink and the paper and the universe were trying to tell me I should be a psychiatrist now ! I mean, I've got my ink blot papers from out of the blue and thin air.

So you'll probably need to stare at each one for a few seconds and see what they remind you of, so we can see what all is really wrong with you.

I think there might be some laughing faces in here.... among other things. Everything seems to be on stilts.

See??? One might be riding piggy back, I'm not sure, but it looks like they're having fun.

Do you see a long face in this? Or a cow head at the top or a pig? Is that a big nose, or eyes in the face below? I think the man has a piece of kleenex hanging out his nose. LOL.....but he doesn't seem too sad about it.

Even the brown paper that was under my art became a blotty. I'm thinking this is a man on a John Deere. The circles were made by the bottom of the other ink bottles that were sitting around. This came through the underside.

I really don't know what the others were saying exactly, but I know what this one is saying "DANG !! YOU SURE DID WASTE A LOT OF INK YOU CLUMSY NINNY !!!"

🤣

Is it giving me the finger in the middle????

Now that I'm going to be a psychiatrist, I wonder if I should specialize or just keep it on a variety basis. I've got a lot of decisions to make, that is for sure !

It's Friday Eve ! (don't count all the exclamation points I used in this post, I mean it ! .. oops ! ) Almost the weekend and I'm looking forward to it whizzing by... I mean, I'm looking forward to it.

While I was making this post Amathon delivered some new stuff. (yes I meant to spell it that way). I now have more paper straws, more grippy socks for around the house ...and more stencils !.... and it's supper time, so I am about to go fiddle around in the kitchen and see what I am going to feed myself.

I hope you had a great day and if you need me to make up new fun names for your mental conditions, let me know.

Love ya !
