Dripping Ink

A bold black-ink portrait with long drips, the eyes the only colour.

One loaded brush, white paper and no second chance. Your cat's head and shoulders are set down in wet, confident strokes: the markings as dense black passages, the light fur as untouched paper, and from chin and shoulders long drips of ink run straight down. Eyes, nose and mouth are sharp wet touches — the eyes the only ones in colour. Black and white, direct and big on a wall.
