This one's cool - the marks are really strange.

Hi,
cheers for the comment -
the marks are done by painting 100% bleach over Indian ink, and then ink over the bleach and repeat until the paper rips or the image has worked :-)
good fun and sometimes you get some groovy random works ...

no worries, let me know how your experiments with it go, oh yea any non-waterproof ink will work.
Such as Biro's, non permanent marker pens, calligraphic inks and kiddies felt tips are ace fun to play with :-) irt also has strange effects on acrylics, some one explained to me that bleach works by removing the pigments from colour - so that should give you some idea of whats happening, by the way you can alter the strength of the bleach, and thus the tones of change by adding varied amounts of water in to the equation - though be warned large exposure to the smell of bleach can trigger headaches :-(
best of luck,

p.s which area of the UK are you based in, I am based in sunny (at present) Cornwall.

Thanks, I'll try it. Looks like a useful technique.
I live in Somerset - it's not particularly sunny here right now!

This one too fits my taste in a special way.
