Serenity upon the sea

Quite a story behind this picture actually...
I did this in my coursework for sampling, and we had to create an image to go with our sampling. After many minutes of looking around the art room for inspiration, I thought of the sea at night.

I used quink ink for the kind of blueish background, which turns white or yellow when touched with bleach which is what we used to make the 'golden' lines. The bumpy texture for the clouds is polyfiller, and the rest is white emulsion (I think) or biro.

Hope you like it!
