This drawing was lightly sketched with pencil and then drawn with a black brush pen. His nose and eyes are colored with glitter pens. A very simple drawing, yet, I hope it brightens your day just a bit.
I have found my new love in playing with the Glass Ink Pen where I can easily achieve specific lines that are hard to make with a regular pen. Here I am working to gain confidence in my permanent line work where I can't erase every second. I am also working to gain experience in cross hatching. which is very difficult.
Took me a few days to complete because of other life events, and I tend to go slow, especially when I get caught up in the details. But I was discovering this was something I was eager to get back to; thinking about it through the day and figuring out how to finish it. Right now it’s on pause as I think how to do the background. :)
"Spring Checkup" by: Eric Lindgren, 2021. Tending to nature since Ancient Times. Pen and Ink on Wexford medium weight sketchbook paper, 8.5 x 11 inches (21.6 x 27.9 cm.s) I apologize for the lack of posting. Recovering from brain surgery and the follow up radiation treatments have me a little slower pace right now. :)
