Ink on multimedia paper.

Tending toward Chaos
This one is red and black ink applied to multimedia paper with a flat wood piece and a calligraphic bamboo point that I cut myself. It is part of a larger piece that I wasn’t happy with, but I thought that the core–what you see here–had more interest with the arching, intersecting lines and colors. In addition, I desaturated this a fair amount in post-processing as the red is too overpowering in the original.
Prints available from Fine Art America where it is called “Entropy.”
Burst!
This was done with ink applied with a flat piece of wood that I fashioned into a calligraphy instrument. The idea was from Hassan Massoudy and some others on Youtube and other places.
In Motion
This one was very “try it and see what happens.” The main idea was to start with a “splat” and then do some flowing strokes from there. I like the way it came out, although the follow-through was fairly spontaneous.
Ink Strokes
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.
