InkFlow — Chalice fall A good Father's Day

A good Father's Day

the white ground keeps the whole thing from going heavy

The palette is warm all the way through: deep gold

puts on their windowsill

with a faintly rosy undertone in the lighter crosshatch lines

InkFlow — Chalice fall A good Father's DayThe same pattern. A different weight. Invert a pattern and you change it more than you expect. The Chalice takes the same mandala as the Knot triangle knots, scrolling curves, a small heart at the center and reverses the ground. Where the Knot is red ink on white, the Chalice is white forms cut from a crimson field. The shapes that emerge are more open, more vessel like, and somehow more formal than their counterparts. Same design, different argument.
