Ink Action Project
For this project we'll be working with India Ink as our medium.
This Ink is a lot of fun to work with because it is very light - especially when we dilute it. That being said, because it is an ink, it will stain the surface, the clothing, and anything else it touches - be very careful and aware of how you use this medium.
*For this project, you are HIGHLY encouraged to bring a t-shirt that you don't mind getting stained - just in case.

- Enlarge your image by transferring it onto your new 8x8in grid. Make sure your lines are very light! Work with one square at a time.
- Indicate where your light source is coming from.
- Colour your image using your choice of complimentary colours. Your foreground will be one colour; while your background will be the other.
- While colouring, pay attention to the depth and value of your colours. The goal is to create a piece that gives the illusion that your positive space is on top (3D) of your negative space.
