welcome, Monotype of the Day #373

Day 7 of Year 2

I have more work to do on the inner landscape theme of the last two days, but I'm letting it marinate. I felt I was getting too careful and in my head so I'm taking a few days to work quickly. These types of pieces often emerge out of the way the ink rolls on to the plate. After rolling ink onto the entire plate, I begin to wipe the ink away. Variations in thickness and color begin to suggest an image. Then as I keep wiping, the ink continues to lead the way to a finished piece. My ink has big plans and I love to listen to them. A process video tonight instead of a poem in my next post. 🙂 xo
