"Usually, I work in my studio and use various mediums (Oil, Tempera, Acrylic, etc).But what will happen if the artist will be in a non-standard environment, practically without any tools and materials for work? Moreover, there is no nature around. No computer, smartphone, camera, TV, etc. Desert Experiments were performed to model such a situation. At my disposal were a limited number of ink colors, ink liners (black and brown), water, and A4 paper // except for a few cases when shaving brush was used :) //. Nothing else. Even no feathers for ink. Painting was done by stick, which is inside the bottle of ink. However, there was a great willingness to create artworks and 1 billion images in my head. The results are presented in this side-project." - Alex Henk
