Dribbling Bideford Black.

Thinned-out Bideford Black over walnut husk ink over gesso.

I had a little bit left of the Bideford Black paint I made recently. It wasn’t a lot so I tried thinning it down with water and took a fairly wide, flat brush to make stripes across one of the sheets of paper I’d prepared with gesso and walnut ink. The Bideford Black wash broke up on the surface of the paper in a very pleasing way. I tipped the paper to get the dribbles running across it.
