Sumi-e Loading Brush

Hi everyone,

Can someone help me with the best way to load the brush for monochrome Sumi-e painting. I have followed a lot of different instructions in books but I still end up with a grey mess from my brush not the nice gradations of black – grey ink that one is supposed to get. I either end up with the brush too wet or too dry and an ugly smudge! As this is the very first basic technique to master if one is to paint Sumi-e style I’m getting really frustrated because I can’t even get started! Help please anyone?   Thanks! #Ink #JapanesePainting #LoadingBrush #SumiE
