Alcohol Ink Painting

I have been working on my portfolio with the hope that I will be accepted into grad school for an art degree.  I have been playing around with ideas of healing, nature, therapy and also the power within the building blocks of nature.  The cell structure is fascinating.  Was I the only nerd in biology class who actually thought the slides we looked at under a microscope were beautiful?

I have been playing with different mediums for this venture and thought that alcohol inks, because of their randomness at times, could actually look really cool if the whole cell slide thing were the inspiration.  Here is one I like, mostly because of the colors.


This is not going in my portfolio, it is all part of the process.  If you would like to check out the rest of my portfolio process (it is still in the planning stages), my portfolio is located at drawinglineseverywhere.blogspot.com  Any input or criticism is welcome.
