Something a little different

 I'm working with a, what we used to call, fanzine.  I did this little sketch as a filler illustration when a gap appears between articles.  Quick and fun little pen/brush & ink.

Pen & Ink in progress

Playing with ink again.

Just thought I'd try and get my hand back into some pen and ink.  It's been fun so far.  I have a couple other drawings ready to be inked, this was just a tryout.  Some of it worked, some of it... didn't.

Twist and hold

Lot's of mass and a bit too much heavy line work on the back and not enough solid work on the right shoulder and arm.

Little pen study

More of the sketchbook session.  I had a bit of a wormseye view which is always interesting.  I used a fine tip Sharpie marker for this particular drawing.  As immediate as I feel 10 minute charcoal drawings are using a pen in a sketchbook really shows what immediate is regarding a drawing.

Trying something different

I decided to just use my sketchbook last night and draw with pencil and pens.  Not sure how successful I was but it's kinda of freeing.  Here are the gestures.

Somthing different

A caricature I did to thank these guys for playing at our most recent art show.

Another ink drawing

I'll have the mate done this weekend.  I enjoyed this one.

A Pair of Pen & Inks

While my wife and I were at Market for our business I saw these frames with small prints inside.  I felt like I could do some pen & ink drawings for these and make a very different look for our store.  Here are the first two.  I think I'll do some wildlife for the next two.  If they seem to be popular enough I'll get some more of these frames and kick out some more.  I've always been partial to ink drawings and this is a good excuse to do some little pieces.

A little late...

so sue me.  Busy day.  Here's something a little different.  I haven't quite figured out if this is done or not.  I really enjoy doing this pen and ink thing, guys.
