My Weekly Themed Sketch and Other Art Works

[ZombiesniperJr]

Very nice drawings

 

[snowbear]

Thank you.

Well, the weekly theme at the fountain pen site has been inactive for a while so I'm not making the drawings at the moment. Still, I have a few to share, and I'll get back to drawing again, probably after the holidays (I actually have two to do, before then, for a couple folks here.)

This was "A Pair of Eyeglasses or Sunglasses"

And the equivalent of EXIF:
HB pencil for rough-in;
Cross Black ink in the Sheaffer Imperial II Deluxe (touchdown) pen for the line work;
Washes of Noodler's Blue Eel and Cross Black inks;
Canson 98# (160gsm) Mix Media paper, 7"x10" (17,7cm x 25,4cm).

I like your sketches. I take pictures because I cannot draw. ;(

Sure you can. It's like anything else - it takes practice.

In this case the total lack of talent requires far more practice than the arthritis will allow!

Excellent. I love this thread. It's like opening a present every time I see a notice. Thank-you sir, you're a peach.

Thank you. Actually I'm a bear, but I get what you mean.

I'm not sure if I'll be about on Sunday, so I'll toss this one out a couple of days early.
Just red and black ink, pointilism.

Weekly Sketch #21 by Charlie Wrenn, on Flickr

 

[snowbear]

Not part of the (now defunct) weekly sketch challenge but a pen & ink sketch, nonetheless.
Leonore (@limr) wanted one of my drawings with a Coffee House or related theme. She has it now, so I can share.

edit: I changed the thread title to be a bit flexible.

I echo JC.

 

[snowbear]

Gracias.

 

[limr]

I love my new piece of art!

 

[snowbear]

Yay! It was worth the map.

 

[limr]

Yay! It was worth the map.

So the map is good? It's the kind you were asking for?

 

[snowbear]

It's exactly what I was looking for. Now I have to decide which side will (eventually) be displayed "up" in the frame.
