Ink Flowers Series 1

Ink Flowers, Series 1 – ink drawings using Winsor & Newton inks on Hahnemühle Traditional Fine Art Paper.

“The ink flower series uses brightly coloured drawing ink on the rough side of Hahnemühle Traditional Fine Art Paper.

There is a degree of control in using the brush to apply the ink. The textured paper gives rise to spontaneous edges and the element of chance comes into play.

I'm reminded of the art of "Sumi-e" - oriental brush painting that uses black ink to create beautifully simple renditions of natural forms”.
