Working with the same set of tools as the last drawing. Keeping a light touch. Looking at how these marks could move into an analog space with a substrate that will absorb the ink or pigment.

Thinking more about moving the drawings from the digital to the analog.

Excited.

Made some new brushes for this drawing. They respond to speed. When I draw fast they make a very thin line. As I slow down it becomes thicker. It has the feeling of using a device that is loaded with pigment and the substrate absorbs based on the time spent in any one spot.

Since I'm using a digital device this pigment doesn't bleed but it reacts. Gonna try a couple more.

There's something silly about this drawing. I'm enjoying the thick inky lines. Like paint markers.

Decided to keep the same color palette and some flowing marker-like tools.

I've always loved making these elliptical shapes. They are like sea shells to me. After I had made this drawing I thought of mussels.

Pretending I have transparent paint markers.

The color glides across the surface.

Starting a new series called 18 lines.

Each of these drawings will only have 18 lines. I began a test on a synthetic paper with graphite yesterday. The quality of the lines are what I was looking for, but the visual experience from a distance is not.

These are repetitive, meditative pieces a response to the sounding series.

For my last series of drawings I constructed an acetate mask to make the background color fields on which I would place my marks. This was successful and I like that way of creating color fields. But I want to make a different single stroke mark. I could use a brush to do that but it would use too much pigment for the surface I want.

Lightness.

Dancing, floating, weightlessness.

A good start.

It's a caterpillar!

Getting into a scribbly state of mind.
