Sketches of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art that I did a few weeks back (only pencil is allowed inside so I referenced my photos). First is of the Oculus; second is the event space during a Founders Preview night.

Autumn arrives in quiet brushstrokes. The chrysanthemum has long held an honored place in ink and wash: blooming when many flowers fade; it represents the season of autumn as well as resilience, longevity, and refined strength. 🍂 #Chrysanthemum #dplus #InkAndWash #Autumn

Lotus blooms rise from still water, reminding us to pause, breathe, and reconnect. Nature makes us feel healthier, grounded, and alive. 🌿🪷 #LotusPainting #NatureHeals #dplus #ArtAndNature #InkAndWash

Let this lotus painting give you a moment of peace. Look into the soft washes of water, petals, and quiet space, allow yourself to step away from the noise and breathe. 🪷🌿 #InkAndWash #LotusPainting #Stillness

#Messyseptember26 - The Book That Was Still Dry
A battered book finds one stubborn patch of shelter beneath a wonderfully messy yellow umbrella.
#YellowUmbrella #BookArt #WatercolorArt #InkAndWash #AIart #AIchallenge #aiartcommunity #aiartist #GenAI #GenerativeArt #SynthArt #BuilderofNightmares
On a textured off-white paper background, an open book rests near the bottom center of the composition beneath a large yellow umbrella. The book is rendered with energetic black ink lines, its thick pages fanning outward from the dark central binding and curling unevenly at the edges. Above it, the umbrella spreads broadly across the upper half of the image, its canopy painted in loose washes of golden yellow, ochre, and muddy brown. Thin black sketch lines define the ribs and irregular folds of the fabric. A slender dark shaft descends diagonally toward the book before ending in a curved yellow-and-black handle suspended just above the open pages. The painting is deliberately messy and expressive, with yellow and black paint splattered around the umbrella and book. Heavy pigments bleed downward in long drips from the canopy, while gray and brown watercolor stains pool around the book and across the ground beneath it. Despite the surrounding splashes, drips, and suggestion of soaking wet chaos, the open pages remain pale and comparatively untouched beneath their unlikely shelter.

I was inspired by @deborahvass.bsky.social to try my hand at some #InkAndWash of the purslane I posted yesterday. I can only hope to achieve the lively, intricate work she does, but this is a start. #ArtYear #Drawing #Sketchbook
A detailed line drawing of a purslane plant. Large flowers emerge from a a mass of small petals in black and white.

#AiArtStyles - The Last Crossing
A silent ferryman carries three shadowed souls through a pale, forgotten passage where even the trees seem to mourn.
#InkAndWash #DarkFantasy #Ferryman #GothicArt
#AIart #AIchallenge #aiartcommunity #aiartist #GenAI #GenerativeArt #SynthArt #BuilderofNightmares
A vertical monochrome ink-and-wash scene depicts a spectral ferryman guiding a small boat through still, mist-covered water. The composition is dominated by broad areas of pale, nearly untouched paper, making the dark figures appear suspended within an immense white fog. Near the lower center, a narrow black boat drifts toward the right, its hull rendered with heavy, irregular brushstrokes that dissolve into a smeared reflection beneath it. Three hooded passengers sit closely together inside, reduced to dark, faceless silhouettes. Behind them stands the ferryman, unnaturally tall and thin, wrapped in ragged black robes that bleed downward like wet ink. A pale, skull-like face peers from beneath his hood while one hand grips a long pole angled sharply into the water. Above him, a towering vertical stain of black and gray ink rises into the mist. Within this darkness, an indistinct skull-like apparition appears to emerge, its hollow eyes and dripping features barely separating from the surrounding wash. On the left, a twisted leafless tree leans inward from a murky shoreline, its branches fading into scattered splatters and stains. A few tiny warm lanterns glow faintly through the distant fog on the right, providing the only trace of color in the otherwise black, gray, and ivory scene. The loose brushwork, dripping pigment, empty space, and dissolving forms create the feeling of a crossing through a quiet, supernatural realm. Keywords: ferryman, ghost boat, hooded figures, skull, mist, ink wash, dead tree, lanterns, monochrome, dark fantasy AI-generated; use is permitted for non-commercial creative projects.

#AiArtStyles - Style Ink & Wash • Cloud Collector
Cloud Collector
Gathering pieces of the sky, one impossible catch at a time.
#CloudCollector #InkAndWash #SurrealArt #Dreamscape #AIart #AIchallenge #aiartcommunity #aiartist #GenAI #GenerativeArt #SynthArt #BuilderofNightmares
A vertical ink-and-wash style artwork depicts a solitary figure standing on a dark, uneven ridge beneath an enormous expanse of swirling gray and white clouds. The small figure occupies the lower-left portion of the composition, rendered mostly in black with loose, energetic brushwork that causes the clothing and hair to dissolve into splattered ink. They hold a long, thin, curved pole extending diagonally upward toward the right, as though fishing in the sky. Several translucent glasslike spheres hang from delicate lines among the clouds, including three suspended near the end of the pole and others descending from cloud masses high above. One sphere glows faintly with warm light while the others reflect muted gray surroundings. Fine looping lines connect portions of the clouds and spheres, suggesting threads, fishing lines, or delicate rigging drifting through the air. Vast billowing washes of pale gray, charcoal, and smoky black spread across a textured cream paper background. Ink splatters, scratchlike marks, soft watercolor blooms, and areas of nearly untouched paper create a balance between dense stormy darkness and luminous open space. A small red seal appears near the lower-right corner, reinforcing the traditional East Asian ink-painting influence of the surreal scene. Keywords: cloud collector, ink wash, lone figure, fishing pole, glass spheres, storm clouds, watercolor, surrealism, textured paper, monochrome AI-generated; use is permitted for non-commercial creative projects.

Fun beachy mini pet portraits! I created these using ink and wash! Made with water brush pens and a fine ink pen.

#art #petportraits #inkandwash #miniatureart #ACEO
A top-down view of four miniature beach-themed pet portrait paintings on a dark desk. The artwork shows various dogs on sunny beaches with blue skies, clouds, and seagulls, rendered in watercolor and ink. Arteza Real Brush Pens, small paintbrushes, and a fine ink pen rest nearby.

I’ve always been influenced by John Piper. This watercolour and ink painting is my version of his Flintham Hall piece. I’m drawn to the tight line work and an expressive, spontaneous wash. Available unframed - DM for price #artforsale #watercolour #johnpiper #inkandwash #buyart

Pondering something - should any of these sketches find their way into my next paintings? Dragonflies, fireflies, snails, or toads—each has its own aura. Let me know which one speaks to you. #dplus #InkAndWash #dragonfly #firefly #snail #toad
