Playing with the ghost ink from last night's print and some more muted tones. There's something rich and sensual about working with these more complex colors, like eating a good piece of chocolate. Until tomorrow. xo

Day 154 of Year 2 (Actually Day 155)
Today an artist friend of mine sent me a really interesting inverted image of my print last night. I loved the way it looked so I set out to make it tonight. Of course when I got to my plate, The Artist had other plans for the artist (me) and this is what came out- something totally completely different! That's why making art is such an adventurous calling, you just never know.
Quatrain 1359
By Rumi, Trans Moyne and Barks
Do you think I know what I am doing?
That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself?
As much as a pen knows what it is writing,
or the ball can guess where it is going next. -
