BIRTH OF A STAR -  The story behind it:

 

There is only so much control that one has of alcohol ink on Yupo paper, which is very slick, like glass.  The paint pigment is diluted and spread with alcohol and more pigment, which is alcohol based.  The colors flow into each other wildly, and with abandonment, as the artist tips the Yupo paper and uses air to control the direction, flow, and mixture, and drops in more pigment as the artwork is unfolding and rapidly changing, sometimes working for hours to get something that is exciting.  Alcohol ink paintings are truly works that could never be duplicated again, other than the use of the same colors, but they would always flow together a little differently.

 

This unframed painting was named by my husband, who thinks that this painting resembles pictures from the Hubble telescope.
