1 sittingDay 1Nanyang ink-brush line & shophouse-pastel watercolour on shell white

I keep asking a flat wash to do work that wants modelling. Loading the brush so one pass can say thick and thin, and it is not solved yet. There is a width below which the line stops being read as a line and becomes an absence, and absence is not what I meant. One face, one loading of the brush. I kept the rule and paid for it twice.

How thin can the line run before the paper takes it over?

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.
