Don’t pay any attention to the first two.
The third one is just black gesso but I’d like to explore further the open paper through the brushwork. There is a name for this in sumie, which I’ve forgotten. I love it and there is something very magical about it. It is both the record of a moment in time AND a result of something which was not wholly in the artist’s control. So it’s like a record of a chance moment – while also being very evocative of physical things in the world (light, mist, etc.) What are the correct terms for it??

I have an image of a black piece made by an old friend. If this interests you I bet you will like her print.
It might be interesting to see what would happen if you tore or scratched the landscape forms into the black print...
