Ink painting is inherently abstract. Lines are an important element in the art form. Lines record the artist's motion giving a strong sense of rhythm. Lines are beautiful to look at, not only because of their texture or the space they divide, but also the dancing action they present. Traditionally, because of the tool and material used, such linework only comes in a dark color on a white surface.
Positive lines
To create white lines, progressive ink painter LIU Guo Song invented a new kind of paper with easily torn fibers. He would first lay down ink on the paper and then tear away some fibers from the dried, painted area thus creating organic-looking 'white lines'.
