Random Watercolor Pencil




I've been playing around with ink & watercolor, and ink and watercolor pencils. Here are a couple of quick sketches I did using a crow quill pen and black ink. I really like this look so I am going to practice in this style more. Today I bought a Moleskine watercolor notebook and a field watercolor set to keep a travel sketchbook. Hopefully I'll have lots to post later.

Moleskine book



I finally got around to buying myself a Moleskine sketchbook. I used a small one when working on the Sketchbook Project, but that never really felt like it was mine. Now I have one to call my own. It's impossible to not feel inspired when you own one of these...I mean this is the same book that Picasso and Hemingway used! I feel like I want to draw, paint, write...anything...I just have to do SOMETHING!

I sketched a stone wall I had seen in a book using watercolor pencils....which is how I realized the Moleskine sketchbooks do not handle water well. I guess now I have an excuse to go buy the Moleskine watercolor book.
