I love it!!

I'm curious - what is "digital ink and paper?" I've seen the little computer stylus things that look like pens, and some pretty advanced art programs, but it's been years. Is that what you use?

Thank you Michael! What you describe is basically it. I use an Android tablet and an app called Zen Brush 3 which is a pretty good emulation of sumi-e ink and paper painting. The stylus I use came with the tablet. Digital art has come a long way recently with very powerful programs available for very little ($4.99 for Zen Brush 3) or free with a basic tablet of any kind.
