How do I paint with sumi ink on rice paper without the paper getting all wrinkled up? March 7, 2010

Or is it supposed to happen?
Also, when I paint, the ink sometimes looks distorted and messy on the rice paper. I painted some card stock and the ink looked all smooth and pretty. But like with the rice paper, the card stock sort of absorbed the water.
I have a sumi-e book but it doesn’t really say a whole lot about adding the ink into the brush

I intend to do a classical painting but I do not know the kind of ink used for the initial drawing. This is just before applying the imprimatura.
