Ink Pen Drawing


“It's cleaner than using pencil
and you are committed to the marks you make!” – Keith Gentle



In this session we had a go at drawing with biro ink pens. Using ink pens when sketching on location enables quick drawings without some of the mess associated with pencils or paints.

We tried out some cross-hatching techniques and then had a go at drawing some glass bottles.

Dianne didn't feel too confident about her results, but I think they have some nice qualities.
