new sketchbook

A passage from Nick Cave’s Red Hand Files struck a chord with me… “I’m worried my thoughts might slip away, as with a dream.”

I bought a set of 3 Bic multi-color ballpoint pens, a total of 10 colors including black, and a new sketchbook. Playing around with what colors and effects are possible, I'm excited to do more stuff with these pens. The colors didn't perfectly reproduce between the photo and JPEG compression. But I love how the upper left section is all done with the one dark blue, green, and red pen.

My new ocs, and random sketches

This is my first doodle in my new sketchbook. The goal: doodle or sketch daily.
