ink

3 months of doodling on an 11x17 sheet.

Ink on paper.

I was travelling two weeks ago, the train moved fast, so the only thing outside the train stable enough to be sketched was the sky.

Got to work early today so I stayed in the car and drew the truck parked across my car.

Ink and watercolor sketch of a scruffy cat.

Pink llama made with watercolour

Another doodle realised for my personal 100 Days Project.

2nd series of my favorite artwork, from ‘The Goodbye Series’. Ink on cardboard, A5 size.

Thinking of making this into a wall paper, have been drawing lots of trees as so many near me have been getting cut down lately.

Doodle over a 1939 Life magazine cover. I used A permanent black marker and some gel pens for the finish.

My usual warm up - doodles on more or less random blobs of paint. Watercolour on paper, A3

I've been inspired by my mother's smoking, one of my best friends' obsession over the rose ash color and the magic spirit of October.

The clutter on my drawing table.. I tend to use pencils the most, with pens a close second and sometimes brushes. This is the neat look---when everything is put away in its box. More often than not, they are a bit more scattered on the surface. Micron pen drawing.

My favorite season is the fall.

Strange creatures of their respective planets meet on a new fruitful planet to create a peaceful community.

"Robot Manflower." 8x8 ink and watercolor. New discovery: Noodlers 54th Massachusetts Ink (watered down) works incredibly well for painting shadows/value before the watercolor. Watercolor does not disturb that ink! Drawn with a Pilot Custom 743 EF with De Atramentis Document Ink Black.

"I really don't like to gripe, But there's a monster in pink stripes, And he's lifting our house up to the sky. It's like what Mama always said, That we would all reach such great heights, But I suspect that's not quite what she meant."

I don't just draw animal portraits! Although it seems tat way at the moment! I did one and it kind of snowballed!!! This one is part of a series of illustrations that tell the story of Hansel & Gretel.

Two old trees.Illustration from Singer/songwriter Juha Tapios song Kaksi Puuta. Story of couple who are like two old trees. Both standing alone but sametime weave roots together. .

Sometimes subject came from nowhere and you dont know what it is or what is meaning

So, I really wasn't going to participate in inktober this year because of time constraints. But I saw some simple line art stuff from others that looked fun. I'll see how far I can make it this year.

I've been taking Vitcoria Johnson's 3 week class on florals and loving every second.

Drawn in pen and ink this is the original drawing in black line.
