I was imagining an ink blot test when I made this, though admittedly, with there being some movement in the water, one side of the paper seems to be more absorbent than the other!
This is a shot across the south end of Ullswater, a little later in the day from the previous couple of images, when the cloud had lifted even further. According to the forecast, this must have been a 'sunny interval'. Hmmmm :-\ .... though there was a brief hint of sun catching the island and the reddish hillside.
Scratches on the table...
breaking up my pen strokes...
I take another drag of my smoke...
another drink from the bottle, that I once broke...
All the words are stirring in my head...
but there's trouble translating them to hand...
Like the time I tried to write you a message in the sand...
and waves kept washing it away...
like they knew what I was really trying to say...
I put everything out on the cluttered surface...
making a mess of the mess,
and I guess
you could say I'm giving you all my kryptonite...
with all those talks, that went late into the night...
we know who's gonna win this fight...
I bared my chest...
prepared for plunging swords...
and lashes from whips...
And still I remember the last words,
repeating from your lips...
as I tried to pull you back by running fingertips...
down your hips...
across your lips...
I don't believe that sincerity,
is measured by the number of words that are written...
or the number of pages turned since I've been here sittin'...
Maybe instead...
it's measured by the pressure,
that I'm putting on the pen...
And now...
...pain drips promises on my words...
...ink blooms appear where I've signed my name...
and now I know,
that this will never be the same...
What is guaranteed to look good when you're 80 and won't make your Grandma cry? This guy!

Horimyo is one of the last irezumi artists in Japan to exclusively use the tebori (hand-inking) technique. He bases his designs on religious imagery (he is a devout Buddhist) and Ukiyo-e illustrations.

The ensemble of the Jewish Quarter, the old Jewish cemetery and the Basilica of St Procopius in Trebíc are reminders of the co-existence of Jewish and Christian cultures from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. The Jewish Quarter bears outstanding testimony to the different aspects of the life of this community. St Procopius Basilica, built as part of the Benedictine monastery in the early 13th century, is a remarkable example of the influence of Western European architectural heritage in this region.

Ink smooshing is a really fun and easy technique and was a great way to create a background for these cute dolphins from the @ClearlyBesotted new Make A Splash set. 🐬

...made by
simply splashing on some watercolor
and
allowing my pen to dance and my soul to sing.

In your soul
are infinitely precious things
that cannot
be taken from you."

In this image of my friend John speeding towards me on a bicycle I was interested (when–many years after taking the photograph–I was thinking about making it into an ink painting) in the image’s compelling sense of mystery, action and potential danger. While working on the ink painting I was thinking of Turner's painting Rain, Steam, and Speed and the futuristic (zooming into the future) implications of the image. I'm not sure how much I was aware of this at the time I made the drawing, but there is also a meaningfulness in making that complicates the image: the initial spontaneous and instantaneous snapshot of a figure blurred in motion then replicated with a labor intensive, meditative act of making the painting. This was a very different process than traditional Korean ink painting, but in some respect similarly meditative.

A bonus 'Inktober'
Poem by Tom Lee
We thought we’re out of lock-down!
We were getting out at last
We could meet up with five close friends
(As long as we were masked)
But now we are restricted
We’re all confused again
I don’t think we’re allowed to meet
It really is a pain
But as long as we are sensible
This thing might go away
Though I’m looking at the news now
And I’m ashamed to say
That there’s lots of ‘lock-down parties’
It’s getting out of hand
It really is quite simple
What don’t they understand?
Some of us are vulnerable
Don’t drive us back inside
Please... just think of others
I’m tired of ...having ...to ...hide
