Black Ink Paintings. Always loved the fresh Energy. Direct Honesty.#Art

The great Black Ink brush Paintings from China and Japan have always caught my attention.

It is direct, honest and seems to catch a pure moment in time.  They also seem to capture the mindset of the Artists as they think and move .. I have always loved the finished works - looking on them in wonder. So I try to do my own Black ink compositions .. But my ideas are not in the austere simplistic Zen style. Compositions Ec242 & 253 ( for example ) try to create the pattern and flow found in nature. Rhythm and harmony.
