I’m developing a new style using string techniques. Dipping it in ink and improvising from there.  The results have been very pleasing.  As has the response.

My favorite aspect of this method is the detachment I take.  So much happens beyond my control.  Dragging the string starts shapes and marks that surprise me every time.

This work is 22”x30” on Arches paper.  Black and brown ink compliment, and blend with, each other. And the light washes of watercolor are harmoniously jointed.
