Figure in Ink with Caligraphy paper No. 1

I have started a new series with caligraphy adorned vintage paper I found recently in a used book store. I love the movement of the caligraphy. It adds a beautiful backdrop to my ink drawings. The painting has been mounted on thick rice paper. I also wrote about the process of backing a rice paper painting on my blog: Gallery Juana.

This is gorgeous. Your delicate line-work is so graceful over the calligraphy.
