I fixed the misspelling of Dickinson's name, just in case you noticed it before. ;p (very embarassing)

Your work is sooooo much fun! Love this cricket-- such lovely lines!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Krista! It was just pointed out to me that I misspelled Dickinson. I'll have to see if that can be fixed.... (I'm mortified)
ReplyDeleteHow did you make those interesting ink lines? With an eyedropper? The cricket is very compelling!
ReplyDelete@Linda, the blotches form as a natural interaction between the bamboo pen and the rough washi cards I use.
ReplyDeleteFriction causes the pen to stick every once in a while and ink pools in that place. My washi cards have high "bleeding" quality, so both the sumi ink and gansai paints quickly spread through the paper as soon as they make contact with it.
I discussed this bleeding quality (nijimi) in my July 29 post about buying materials online.
Hi Debbie, hope no crickets were harmed in the making and editing of this etegami LOL. Carole
ReplyDeleteCarole-- Rest assured, no crickets were harmed in the making (and editing) of this etegami. :D
ReplyDeleteNice cricket. I love the feel and texture in yr work.
ReplyDeleteI love this little guy!
