They are A3 pieces of photocopy paper (not too absorbent) which were then folded in half. I placed a few good drops of food colouring into the fold and pressed the paper together to move the ink around and creates something reminiscent of the <span class=\"norm\">Rorschach<\/span> inkblot test. I tried using artists ink but it didn\u2019t spread as well, and much preferred red to other colours I tested.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t remember what prompted me to start drawing headless dancing ladies, I guess it\u2019s just what I saw in the first image and then went with it!<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type='text\/css'>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item
