An example of the healthy practice of intuitive mark making; making loose and expressive marks on paper without thinking about them before hand. No planning and no concern for composition. From time to time I sit down with a stack of paper, a brush and some ink, quickly working till one of the ingredients runs out. Some of the images begin to make sense after a month or so. I can look at them later and recognize concerns and events from that moment in life. This practice also gives the artist a wider range of shapes and forms to work with.
