These color experiments are interesting. So you're using indigo as your main color. Which yellows and which reds and/or oranges are you using? I see some magenta reds and some more orange reds. At any rate, you're getting some interesting blends.
I'm using burnt yellow and Q burnt gold, orange, and scarlett. Some of that indanthrone, which seems to granulate strangely, and there was magenta in the first one, but it's a little weak. Oh, and perylene green for borders.
I like the second one. It has a better structure and looks as though you developed some sort of plan while painting. I also like those touches of pink/red.
The plan is to make some broad sloppy stripes across the paper swiftly without thinking about what you are doing, wetting them down a bit, dropping some of those Q burn colors into the stripes, then blotting them, then well, whatever.

These are very organic and interesting. And you are using colors I don’t own. I’ll have to get on it.
DeleteI like the stain glass quality of these works, the dark spikiness against the transparent lighter colors.
