  • In this video I share you a strange organic design that came to me all of a sudden while I experimented in my art journal. It is such a wonderful feeling when something unique comes to life on the page.

    That is a ghost party for me 🤣Looking like ghosts holding hands. Absolutly beautiful!

    Reminds me neurons, but the example you drew today almost looks like a caterpillar. Then again, it could be amoebas... maybe slime mold. Love that there are so many possible interpretations ❤

    • @betsi_jae
      @betsi_jae  Před 10 měsíci +1

      I agree. They do look like neurons . Now that you mention it, that makes me want to try a design that mimics neurons and synapses.

    Definitely connective tissue of some kind. Love it.

    I think you hit the jackpot! This is so beautiful. You can see it many different ways just as you explained - cobwebs, neurons, etc. What a happy accident! How about "Webby" for a name?

    Bone Marrow is the first thing that came to my mind. Have you ever seen an old chicken bone, crack it open after it's dried out and look at it. It looks fibrous like that.

    • @betsi_jae
      @betsi_jae  Před 10 měsíci

      Definitely. like the cross sections of old bone, like when someone gets osteoporosis. 🤔

  • @toridwms
    @toridwms Před 9 měsíci

    Very organic. It looks to me like an artist's interpretation of a double helix either winding or unwinding. I'm following your instructions but on black paper. So far it just looks weird but it is a first draft. :) Thanks for the videos.

    • @betsi_jae
      @betsi_jae  Před 9 měsíci

      I’m glad you’re experimenting with it 😊. A little practice and I’m sure you’ll stumble upon some nice results.

    Agree, spiderwebs but also some sticky substance. No matter what, it’s very organic and very interesting. I will save and try it soon. Thanks for sharing. I think I’m going to incorporate some of your style in an art nouveau sort of way. Love curves and curleques.

    Hello Betsy, this is a very interesting pattern that can trigger lots of ideas for drawings!

Ok I better stop here...

    Well! I have some nice black paper…I’ve been thinking last couple of days, I wonder if I could work in white pen on there. But couldn’t envisage a pattern. Then I saw this, and thought it was white on black! I’m not sure if the white pen I have will be opaque enough, I need to try. But I have some ideas now of how it might look. Love this pattern, makes me think of bone or nerve cells 😊

    • @betsi_jae

      Once I finished I did fill in any remaining spaces black. You could also add more doodles if you wanted to. As far as journals, I don't have any I can recommend since I make my own. In a few weeks I will be offering some for sale on my website and I will also share my method for making them in case you would like to make your own.
