Earlier this year I did some color testing with bottles of Higgins ink that I found in a container in my basement (right after I bought a bunch of new ink, naturally). But I just now noticed that I hadn’t used them for an actual leaf ghost. The green is green, but the brown turned out to be more of a reddish grey.
I know some of the other media I work with produce more visually dramatic results. But I find the ink-only pieces more psychologically soothing to create. There’s just something meditative about all those repetitive lines. Add some soft music, and it’s a great segue between a difficult semester and a much-needed Thanksgiving break.
