Pen & Ink Revisited…

When I get stuck in a creative rut I return to drawing which develops into pen and ink. There’s something about ink that seems to convey a simplistic yet powerful piece. It can be fundamentally linear or a combination of hatching to suggest three dimensional form. Tonal washes emphasizes the drawing. 

Inking is an alluring experience; it can be intimidating as it is intriguing. It takes practice to put pen to paper, but once you start to conquer your fear it becomes a meditative art form that is transformative.
