Another experiment. I used the postcard blanks I found recently and attempted a mingling of watercolor and gel ink. No color pencils this go around. In the previous piece I used the gel ink over the watercolor after it had dried. In this one, I drew with gel pen first and THEN added the watercolor. What I found was the unfortunate fact the gel ink I used wasn't truly waterproof. Its lines became diluted and weaker with the addition of watercolor. Anyway, I have some sumi ink in that green bottle that I've had for years. I have lots of nibs around here, so I'll try that next. This is 5.5 by 4.25 inches in size and another experimental example of Original Jones Art as it continues to materialize in northwest Austin, Texas.
