Spring Haiku Exchange


I’m running a little late on the deadline for this exchange amongst members of the Calligraphy Exchange group at Yahoo. Rozanne, I’m mailing it today, and here’s a preview. Click on the image for a closer look. I was working on another piece yesterday, and decided to do a similar wash on another piece of paper for testing; I cut this best 5″ x 7″ rectangle out of the middle to use for the spring haiku piece. Gouache + glair + Leonardt Principality nib + a Mitchell #3.5 nib. The wash is a little darker than I’d like, while, conversely, the wash for the piece I did yesterday always seemed a little too light, or at least too shallow or something. I’ll post that piece in a bit.
