okay, I'll try again.
By "deep canvas?", I meant: just what exactly do you mean by that.
I've been an artist for 40 plus years now, mostly as a painter, and in all those years I've never heard a single reference to "deep canvas?. Care to expound?

Deep edges 1.5 inches as opposed to skinny.

A beautiful, hypnotic mix of colours here. It all combines to create a real sense of vast cosmic scale, like looking at the inner workings of the universe...

Yes, the colors are so nice, really love this <3. What's ink painting like? Do you use a brush or what, never seen or tried that stuff.

Thank you! On this canvas it was very hard. I used a gold primed canvas (for fun and experimenting) but it wasn't in anyway absorbent so it took many layers to get this effect. Ink painting is really fun on anything that is slightly absorbent. Good papers are great. Normal canvas is fine too. I used brushes and the ink pipettes to apply the ink.

Thank you! Not sure about this one? Several sittings I'd say. I did alot of layer work on this and I wasn't really happy with it but its nice to get some feedback. Glad you like it!

Lovely.

Beautiful Amy! Colours are utterly majestic. The light gold really jumps right out. I can make out vague clock faces, which makes me think of it as the turning of the wheel of time.
