This was very relaxing to do. I first sketched the general shapes I wanted to fill in and then looked up some patterns and also just made some up as I went.
It was hard drawing an eye in ink because the lines are hard to control and inconsistent. I made the eye the main focus of the piece.
For my inspired ink piece, I saw a painting of a group of jellyfish using simple values and I did a similar piece but with only one. I put a puddle of ink down and blew air on it to get the tentacles.
