I’m carrying on experimenting with being as random as I can, which isn’t easy for me! I worked on another sheet of vintage watercolour paper from a Winsor & Newton block I was given by a friend, it’s about size A2. I did one a few days ago and I think I’ll do a series and see what happens. I used my home-made walnut husk ink, firstly applying a light wash and when that was dry, brushing the neat ink over with a large, flat brush. I like the way the ink pools at the edge of the brushstrokes.
Here are the two that I’ve done so far. I don’t know what I might end up doing with them, at the moment I’m just trying to keep a open mind and be as free as possible.
So much more than it’s simple parts. Good stuff!
Thank you, don’t know where it’s going but I will keep at it😀
Too bad WP doesn’t let one post photos in comments. I have a random ink smooshy painting done by a friend of mine that really shows how far you can push that technique. For now, you’ll just have to keep going and discover your own path!
Ooh that sounds very interesting
Love the rich results!
Thanks Sharon, that ink is so lush
dark and lovely
The ink is sumptuous. I hope the trees produce some more this year.
