Recently I've been watching a lot of vidoes about making flower pictures using acrylic string pull technique. Like this one, isn't it beautiful?
最近在YouTube看了不少繩子拉花的影片,像這樣的作品很美。

Today I had some black ink left over after I finished practicing calligraphy, so thought I'd give it a go. I didn't have all the right kit at home but figured I'd improvise with whatever is available. Coarse string and plain white A4 paper. I dipped the string in the dish of ink and let it soak for a while to absorb the ink.
今天練完書法還有墨汁剩,就地取材試學人家玩繩子拉花。我把繩子浸在墨汁裡,然後小心翼翼鋪在白紙上。 繩子較粗,白紙又小,所以擺的線條比較拘謹。我把另一張白紙和雜誌蓋上去,用手壓著然後慢慢把繩子往下拉。很緊張,不知我的第一張作品如何呢?

Then I randomly placed the string onto the paper, and added a bit more ink directly onto the string (mistake 1). It was a bit difficult to get some nice curves as the string was quite thick and not very flexible. This is what I managed.

Now for the pull. I folded the paper over, placed an old magazine on top and pressed hard (mistake 2). Slowly I pulled the string downwards releasing the pressure occasionally to let the string move. Viola! This is what it looked like when I removed the magazine. See the outline and the streaks, it's a bit like the photos I saw on the internet. It looks promising so far. Let's see what my pull string flower looks like inside.

Errrhhhh... where's my flower??!! What happened?? It's not what I expected!! Seems like I put too much ink and pressure on the string so I ended up with a blob of .... I'm not sure what it is.
噢!我的花兒在哪? 這是甚麼?幹嘛會變成.... 我也不知是甚麼。慘呢! 我第一張作品徹底失敗。

我的感觉是既像一层层的喷泉又像动态的少女舞者,中文名:舞动的喷泉。想起我家的一个月季品种——伊芙·喷泉😄

很美的名字!

I didn't know there was such a thing
Can't wait to see where you will go with this
And you do calligraphy as well... niceeeee

I would call it Bootylicious :D

It sounds as good as Eliza's yummilicious! Just posted part 2 of my artistic journey 🙃

I would call in "A tribute to the black panthers, power to the people."

Thanks for your entry!

The Graceful girls' boxing 😆

That's a nice one

This is such a creative way to make art. My first impression is "dancing by a stripper pole", lol... but I'll go for a clown with a long nose pointing upward, haha! So the name can be "A Happy Clown".

From stripper to clown!! Ha ha!

I would name it Glorious Gloom Harmony :)

Thanks for entering!

I would call it "misdirected rage". Looks like someone getting angry over nothing at themselves in the mirror 😆

That sounds a bit like me sometimes when I get out of the wrong side of the bed!

I enjoy watching these videos too @livinguktaiwan but have never tried it yet. You have done an amazing job. Love it! (U & R )

Thanks for your kind words Trudee. Now I finally understand why people can spend hours watching youtube videos

You're very welcome. I spend quite a bit of time immersed in art based videos as I find them very relaxing.

On the left is the man and on the right is the woman, it looks good and I can’t unsee them.

Thank you Andy, I really appreciate your comment.

一个玩健身的美女在展露她性感的英姿💪💪😎😎真的很像...像极了😸

我一看到这幅图就想到妈妈咪呀里面有个妈妈就是玩健身哒😻😻

不知道英台美女有没看这个节目...做女人👩就这样「妈妈咪呀」🤗

媽媽咪呀很久以前看過,超好聽的歌 🎼

個人覺得好像是一個人對著鏡子做出瑜伽的動作😁😁

唉!讓我想起很久沒去上瑜珈課呢!

喔!學瑜伽是一個很好的運動可以舒展脛骨又可以瘦身。謝謝你的提醒💕抱抱。卡姐決定要去學瑜伽了。

Hobbit version of Rocky.

Yo!!

Great experiment! I am sure the next one you'll do or did went much better.

This is like Rorschach or 'what do you see in the picture' - well, I see an expressively dancing woman :D

I'm going to get some proper supplies later this week and try again, lets hope it turns out a bit better.

Hola como dicen por allí, la practica hace al maestro, y a pesar de tu intento de crear flores sin éxito creo que salio una magnifica forma, a mi parecer una mujer estirando su cuerpo después de un nuevo amanecer asi que titularia tu obra "AL AMANECER"

Qué haría sin el traductor de google? Espero poder compartir algunas mejores en el futuro después de practicar más. Gracias por tu entrada.

Gracias @livinguktaiwan, por seleccionar mi respuesta como la ganadora un enorme placer participar, espero ver y aprender con tus obras

its like this a lady in dancing pose

Complete with the beautiful thighs!

Looks like a figurative style art piece that shows a woman holding - and perhaps breastfeeding - the child so i would name it ''Motherhood''.

I love how you visualise that. Thanks.

That could be: "La Loca de San Blas"

That's a beautiful piece of sculpture, I'm so humbled that my kindergarten creation reminds you of it

Its a (sexy) mother raising her child up in the air.. like simba.. 😀

Simba as in the cartoon? 🤔

Yes.. does it make sense? Ahaha

@livinguktaiwan, I want to give a title to your art work and that is Rainbow Flowers.

Posted using Partiko Android

My 'creation' (if you can call that) is the last image, not the first one!

That's really unique and i don't know it's good title or not but as soon as I've saw that art piece one title came into my mind and that is Twin Dark Pose.

First reactions are normally the best ones 🙂

That's true. 🙂👍
