Inspired by @deborahvass.bsky.social, I'm continuing to work on my #InkAndWash technique. #Drawing #Sketchbook #Ink #ArtYear

A Siamese fighting fish drawn with a dip pen using Winsor & Newton black India ink and then overpainted with ink wash on Canson Mixed Media (98 lb) paper.

Sketches of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art that I did a few weeks back (only pencil is allowed inside so I referenced my photos). First is of the Oculus; second is the event space during a Founders Preview night.

Autumn arrives in quiet brushstrokes. The chrysanthemum has long held an honored place in ink and wash: blooming when many flowers fade; it represents the season of autumn as well as resilience, longevity, and refined strength. 🍂 #Chrysanthemum #dplus #InkAndWash #Autumn

Lotus blooms rise from still water, reminding us to pause, breathe, and reconnect. Nature makes us feel healthier, grounded, and alive. 🌿🪷 #LotusPainting #NatureHeals #dplus #ArtAndNature #InkAndWash

Let this lotus painting give you a moment of peace. Look into the soft washes of water, petals, and quiet space, allow yourself to step away from the noise and breathe. 🪷🌿 #InkAndWash #LotusPainting #Stillness

#Messyseptember26 - The Book That Was Still Dry
A battered book finds one stubborn patch of shelter beneath a wonderfully messy yellow umbrella.
#YellowUmbrella #BookArt #WatercolorArt #InkAndWash #AIart #AIchallenge #aiartcommunity #aiartist #GenAI #GenerativeArt #SynthArt #BuilderofNightmares

On a textured off-white paper background, an open book rests near the bottom center of the composition beneath a large yellow umbrella. The book is rendered with energetic black ink lines, its thick pages fanning outward from the dark central binding and curling unevenly at the edges. Above it, the umbrella spreads broadly across the upper half of the image, its canopy painted in loose washes of golden yellow, ochre, and muddy brown. Thin black sketch lines define the ribs and irregular folds of the fabric. A slender dark shaft descends diagonally toward the book before ending in a curved yellow-and-black handle suspended just above the open pages. The painting is deliberately messy and expressive, with yellow and black paint splattered around the umbrella and book. Heavy pigments bleed downward in long drips from the canopy, while gray and brown watercolor stains pool around the book and across the ground beneath it. Despite the surrounding splashes, drips, and suggestion of soaking wet chaos, the open pages remain pale and comparatively untouched beneath their unlikely shelter.
