layering 

Sumi ink, bamboo pen, wash, splatter, drip

New approach to layers, using ink and paint, to create, destroy, discover. The medium I mixed with the paint slowed the drying more than I anticipated. These are small size substrates. When I painted larger I was frustrated by the paints fast drying time.
