Today we learnt about mark making. What interested me most was how diverse and, if I may, ratchet, the tools to make a mark making painting has. From Conventional inks and paintbrush to bubbles and joss sticks. It opens much more innovative way of making art. In a way, this form of art challenges us to go back to the basics when art started and materials couldn’t be bought in the local Artfriend and people played around with crushed shells, berries, egg yolk etc to achieve what the wanted on the canvas.
