Eeee~ I need to get into this again, but I thought I'd share some of my brushed ink paintings from last year.

Japanese Marsh Orchids. I think that's about the best I've ever got them. You're 'supposed' to be a little abstract with sumi-e but for some reason I can only really 'get' orchids when I paint them exactly as they are.



haha, wild yellow roses. Don't be too 'wooow' over it though, it's a copy of part of a professional piece. Practise and all that~



One of my final pieces. My teacher looked at it and said "huh, you know, 25 years i've been teaching black and white paintings and I think that's the first zebra."
