This morning, strange light patterns alighted the marks I had made in my sketchbook last night. A shadow from the cup and light patterns like crackled glass reflected within the shadow. I couldn’t work it out, and just traced the patterns onto the page.
It occurred to me that I didn’t need to have the energy to fill the long roll of paper with bold dancing marks, I could make small marks and set them off in the direction of the window at the end of the studio. Set them off like little chicks and see how far they could go!
So I went to the studio, and made one Hi bi Arata. A little stronger, more uplift in the flight in the final kanji. A different person each time!
And then set my small marks off on their journey!
Interesting while still wet — volume and reflected light.
