pen and ink

These are just some random doodles I have done recently while practicing my skill in pen and ink drawing.

As we approach the end of winter, who knows where we’ll end up next? Still cautiously optimistic here... As long as there’s stuff to inspire us all, it can’t be all that bad?

Still the same concept I've been working through for a while, but trying to dig a little deeper. I had a 1:45 min flight and I worked on this the whole time (minus turbulence).

This cool frog monster is a master inventor. Here he is riding through town on his homemade motorcycle.

Airbags deployed...RIP CRV 2003-2019. Drove this guy just short of 17 years. First new car I owned. Goodbye old friend.

I was testing a Rotring Rapid Pro 2mm and this came out. Inked with a burgundy Custom 743 EF, an underrated workhorse of a pen.

Drawings from the hearings from the last couple days.

Working on whales and I decided to color one. I'll add color to the others this evening.

Digital is great -- for composition and color. But for line art? I don't think I can ever give up the fountain pen. This was drawn with a Sailor King of Pen (M) and Sailor 1911L (EF) fountain pens using Pilot Black ink. Yes, sacrilege. Pilot ink in a Sailor. But I have some Kiwa Guro arriving soon!

I don't always draw skulls and beer, sometimes I draw aliens too!

Always enjoy getting back to drawing the figure from life.
