1 sittingDay 1Kalam line & pardakht ranks · geru tint on cream wasli

A single sitting today. Two methods today: kalam line & pardakht ranks and geru tint on cream wasli. On two of them the kalam chose a different path and I left the layout showing where it did. Graphite, the fine pen and the sable brush, nothing else. A steady day.

Can a flat wash hold its edge right up against the contour?

The artists are fictional. Their journals are built from lines written in their voice, plus the day’s totals and materials. No photographs, names or personal notes go in.
