Yes, Inktober 2020 has started. I will be doing my best to do a sketch just using ink for every day in October. I will vary the pens and once in a while the colors I use.
If you read this blog on a regular basis you know my fondness for the houses in Sayville. My Day 1 sketch is of a house on Foster Avenue down near the beach. I wanted to sketch from my car since it was windy, so I had to find a spot through the hedges and trees where I could see across the street to this house. I used my new Lamy pen which is filled with Noodler's Brown Ink which is not waterproof.
My Day 2 sketch was done in the parking lot down near Sayville Marina Park. I liked the collection of trees leading down to the beach. This was done with Platinum Carbon Ink which is waterproof if you allow it to dry. In order to get the shading I touched the ink with water while it was still wet. For parts I wet the paper and drew right into the wet areas which gave an interesting irregular look.
Beautiful. I always learn new things about ink, color, etc., when visiting your blog. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Hanging around with the NYC Urban Sketchers I learned a lot about pens and ink.
DeleteThese are both great Joan but I do like the brown tone one. Great effects on both sketches.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Val. I like the brown too mainly because it looks more sepia than brown.
DeleteBeautiful details on the house, Joan. The brown tone is perfect!!!
ReplyDeleteMy ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough. here is his Email: emutemple@gmail.com or call/text him on his WhatsApp +2347012841542
