Field notes
The process account describes repeated drying, grinding, washing, and sieving before the soil is mixed with glue and water. The page also records pigment colors by location and particle size, and describes the central circle shifting through colors associated with Namsan soil, Hangang sand, and Bukhansan limestone. It presents commissions and workshops as available options, though the page gives no prices.
