Acrylic paint on mixmedia surface. So, no, it is not ink, but it is meant to capture the essence of a simple set of ink strokes, but with a thicker medium.

Inkscape 1
I am been experimenting with ink and simple black and white abstracts. This one is ink on watercolor paper, about 8 x 10 inches. It is the first of a series of experiments using different materials, such as acrylic, watercolor, and ink. To date, all are primarily black and white, although I may start to add more color at some point. I believe that these paintings and ink sketches relate at some point to my wire sculptures, as both explore variations of lines and shapes in space.
Wire Creature
I like this one, because it happens to suggest a familiar form even though it is still quite abstract. 12 x 4 inches and available at Etsy here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/216022981/figurative-bird
Acrylic Beast
Hello!
Time for a change of pace. What can you convey with just a few, expressive lines?
“Dervish”
I thinks of this sculpture as a single line drawn in three-dimensional space. It is 10 inches tall by 4 inches wide. The base is wood painted with acrylic paint.

Wire Sculpture – next size up
At 19 inches high and 7 across, this sculpture is larger than most I have been posting lately. And the thicker wire makes it more substantial as well. In creating this piece, I tried to convey a sense of graceful movement, even though it is stationary.

Unpainted Wire Sculpture
This is the same wire I normally use for the black wire sculptures I’ve been posting, but I left it unpainted this time to see how that works. Comments welcome and purchasing info at Etsy.
Curved Wire Sculpture
This guy is a bit larger than the one posted yesterday at 14 inches tall and 4 to 5 inches wide.

Curved Wire Sculpture
This is the first of a series I’ll be posting. They will be small at the start, but I am likely to increase their size once I get the shapes the way I like them. This one is just over 11 inches tall. Please feel free to comment.
