When I was in Austria years ago, studying with Phil Rubinov-Jacobson, I began this piece on board with ink washes to complete in the Mische painting technique (Egg tempera and oil).
It is a re-working of my drawing 'Sacred Wisdom'.
The mische painting didn't eventuate, so recently I continued to work with inks, then scan and finish it digitally (using the same principles of building up layers of white highlights under transparent glazes of soft colour.)
