Spring Forest P09507-P00284 Terra-sigillataBegun by combining Asian black ink and primary liquid watercolor on layers of mulberry paper, this work was developed by letting the ink and paint merge and blend when dried, producing an abstract form. Artist Ming Franz then added hand painted details to create this remarkable landscape painting. This work on paper ships unframed and is not ready to hang.
