Muddle

The past few days have been a struggle in the studio, too much, to little, to blah. Can't seem to find what I sense is waiting, so it's push, back off, try again. And when the whole thing becomes too frustrating I make marks on a roll of very thin Chinese paper I found in the studio. It's so thin I have to have a very light touch with the ink otherwise I make holes. Hmm, maybe work with that.

  1. What wonderfully expressive brush marks. I love the overlaps and the varying intensity of ink in the top one.
