One Year of Exploration and Experimentation

6 Day Painting -Work in Progress : This painting was painted with charcoal coffee paint made in my studio from spent coffee grounds on long ago purchased Mulberry paper. In the next couple of months, I will be adding some colour to this scroll with old  long ago purchased commercial inks,    1.5 feet wide x 24 feet long, September 30, 2025.
There is still so much I need to play and experiment with charcoal. And there is so much to be learned about making my own paper from anything and everything, the work continues. This past year has taught me that there is no secret to being an artist or making art, for me it is all about learning by doing and having a disciplined practice. And I am forever grateful to the Canada Council for their support,
