Great! Thanks for that recommendation. I’ll check it out. I’m currently waiting for some samples of inks to come in the mail. It’s good to finally find another Aussie artists here.

Thanks! I really appreciate your response. I am still nervous about using ink to sketch. Putting a wash down first would help with that fear, I think

Love the vibrancy of this.
I curious to know if you did the wash first or after the pen work. How/why did you choose these colours?

Pollard pruning is a traditionally European style. It is a way of controlling the overall size of the tree, useful in crowded cities.

Impressive how few strokes gives an impression and feel of a subject. I aim to be as decisive in my line work

I love the green Sailor Fude. Sadly I couldn’t find one here in Australia so I had to get a brown one. Of course, I also had to get samples of brown inks to match!

Love it!
I also enjoy using toned paper. Need to get myself a posca pen tho. My rollerball is not doing the job.

Love this!
Tho I have to admit I wondered if you were drawing with chapsticks. I’ve never seen the tempera sticks. I will now go searching

Romeo is my model to trial my fountain pen. This is an unbranded fude (foo-day) nib that allows the strokes to be both fine and broad, resembling a brush (fude in Japanese)
It’s quirky. And fun.

Finally, my finished Under Sea mandala for the Calm exhibition, as part of Adelaide Fringe Festival. I didn’t use a pattern - both liberating and scary.
See pics for Exhibition details.

When it’s 42Β°c outside I choose to sit in the aircon to paint in my mini sketchbook. I found a shrubbery in the food court, which allowed me to block out all the people around me.

Thank you. I don’t usually paint this small. But it’s fun and can be quick.

Thanks! The pallet tea is lovely rosewood and I’ve filled it with my favourite Daniel Smith watercolours

🎨 Painting in my mini book with mini pallet. Quite a challenge to reduce the vista to such a tiny square. But I’m always up for a challenge. 🎨

β˜•οΈ finished the coffee sketch that I started yesterday. I truly love working on tinted paper with colour pencils. Also, when the view is uninspiring, I look at the details, like the wicker chairs β˜•οΈ

Progress update: embroidering the bubbles in my under sea crochet mandala. Next bit is to attempt some seaweed and perhaps to extend it somewhat.
