Flo's Luncheonette

My sketch club planned on meeting at Flo's in Blue Point on Wednesday. For some reason I ended up being the only one who showed up. I've painted Flo's several times in watercolors, so I decided to do it in ink washes this time.

  1. Were you able to do this by just wetting your ink lines, or did you have to actually paint with the ink? Nice effect either way.

  2. Mickey - Thanks. This particular ink bleeds, so I sketch and just wet the lines. When it dried I went over the spots where the lines needed to show more.

  3. Even though I am a huge fan of watercolor, I really love these ink washes you do, Joan. They are just exquisite!

  6. Joan this just proves that you are an artist no matter what medium you use. I love the details my dear friend. As always you inspire me to keep sketching no matter what. Have a delightful day.
