I like how the ink shows up on this paper with the Uniball pen. It is available at the office supply store. This one I attempted to keep the pen on the paper, drawing with one continuous line. I came pretty close. I am so near sighted that it is very challenging to see well enough to draw from the distance I am sitting away from the monitor. Maybe it's a blessing not seeing the details!
Newborns, I am told, see only 19" which is the distance from the mother's breast to her face. Sometimes you only need that much.
ReplyDeleteMyrna - Love what you are doing on this blog. You may remember me as a member of the Watercolor Connection, although I'm not presently in the critique group that you are leading. I am very inspired by your daily sketches. So much so, that I started sketching on the 5th and plan to continue each day also. I have added your blog in my links section and am asking if you could do the same for me. My blog is http://sheilassketchbook.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteSee you around and keep up your great work. I also follow your Creative Journey blog. Love it too...Sheila Fimreite
Maggie, you are always full of interesting facts! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSheila, I do remember you. Hope you will be taking the one day texture workshop this month. Happy you are inspired to draw a little each day. I will add your blog to the list!
This is a lovely drawing!
ReplyDeleteI am enjoying your self-portraits. :)
I like the effect of the two different line weights.
