'New'


I haven't studied calligraphy and don't really understand that much about it, but I still try to practice it every now and then to improve my brush control. So today filled the sheet with character 'new' (新) written in different styles (above a part that fit to the scanner).

    Sasa, 2013 will be a great year to you and your calligraphy skills will flourish. I'm sure.
    Hurrah to the New Year and to you.

    I guess there's nothing like painting this type of calligraphy to soften the hand on the use of the brush.
    I always see this kind of writing as if I were looking at an abstract painting (I mean, I do not understand the meaning and just let my senses act)
    I'm going to do a toast for you on December 31, my friend Sasa!!!! :) ♥

Flowers gone wild... I was testing how watercolor paper would work with my ink painting. Unfortunately ink always looks quite dull on it when compared to 'rice paper', which shows magnificent shades and nuances. But the problem with rice paper is that painting gets crinkled and needs to be mounted on a stiffer backing paper, which is a very difficult process. Currently I am sending my work to China to be mounted but that is time consuming. There must be soneone in London who has mastered the traditional Asian wet mounting technique?

Backgrounds

Nunu the cat stepped on a plate of ink and then walked over some work of mine leaving cute paw marks... Unfortunately the end result was quite messy so I was experimenting with backgrounds today.     (This is not the first time Nunu participated in art creation. I have an earlier work where paw marks are clear and well-positioned and only improve the work... If I find it, I'll post it here later.)
