It has a lot to do with selecting the features that interest me, rather than any meaningful agenda. I have the whole world of multicultural design concepts to support me. The flat white gesso areas take on a warm quality under shellac. I believe the grain of the wood is so important, that a little slippage of the intense ultramarine blue into it has a dynamic quality. I don&#8217;t feel it is better if everything simply stays in place, so in the next one I definitely encouraged the movement of the ultramarine ink into the resin.  <a href=\"http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-1440954616535.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full\" title=\"wp-1440954616535\" src=\"http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-1440954616535.jpeg\" alt=\"image\" \/><\/a> Yes, I could tame the process into an anal hard-edged monstrosity, but the flow is certainly more intriguing. The new addition of Gold ink over a red &#8220;bole&#8221; drew into the next piece, one that I am still not quite satisfied with. I am mulling over the space between the outer ring with the small vacant triangles. On the one side, the edge may be too week,  <a href=\"http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-1440954649218.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full\" title=\"wp-1440954649218\" src=\"http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-1440954649218.jpeg\" alt=\"image\" \/><\/a> but I don&#8217;t want a strict connection with the inner area. I may opt for the rich black you can see in the next one. I&#8217;m very happy with the sketchy little lines that light up the center area &#8211; for me, at least.  <span style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: normal; background-color: #ffffff;\">With the open wood areas and the sharp points the black Sumi ink neither separates or joins. So that may be a clue as to elwhere #3 will need to go. But I&#8217;m not pushing it. I have a lot more to do before I come back to it.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_766\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-14409546692871-e1440960272258.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-766\" src=\"http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-14409546692871-e1440960272258-1022x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Number 4\" width=\"640\" height=\"641\" class=\"size-large wp-image-766\" srcset=\"http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-14409546692871-e1440960272258-1022x1024.jpg 1022w, http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-14409546692871-e1440960272258-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-14409546692871-e1440960272258-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/lpkaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/wpid-wp-14409546692871-e1440960272258.jpeg 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-766\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">#4<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I decided to work a little bigger with these drawings on plywood.
