Inkwash - Art Blanket

“With permanent ink, clear water, my favorite 000 brush and the best art paper made, I painted ‘grey scales’ for two solid years—that’s black to white in ten steps, white to black in ten steps. A meditation in which every new shade of grey has to be halfway between the last shade and the next unknown shade, is intended to create a smooth transition. The series evolved endless fields, represented by the wallpaper in Chaos Order Secret Writing Gallery Two in Entheon.”
— Allyson Grey

Grey Scales is a meditation on patience, perception, and the subtle beauty of gradual transformation. Created through an exacting process that occupied Allyson Grey for two years, the work explores the infinite possibilities that emerge from the simplest of elements: black, white, and every shade in between. Through countless carefully rendered transitions, the artwork becomes both a visual field and a contemplative practice, revealing how complexity arises from disciplined attention and incremental change.

The resulting patterns evoke endless expanses of form and possibility, inviting viewers into a space where order and mystery coexist. As with much of Allyson Grey’s work, Grey Scales transforms repetition into revelation, encouraging a deeper awareness of the hidden structures that shape perception and consciousness.

Whether displayed as textile art or enjoyed as a cozy woven throw, this blanket brings the meditative elegance of Allyson’s artistic process into your home, studio, or sacred space.
