This is my second sketch following the challenge of @koosjekoene and her draw tip Tuesday suggestion to draw the same subject each week – but with different tools and techniques. This time (following her approach, although that’s not really essential), I used a dip pen and some Sailor brand black ink. I haven’t used my dip pen for years and it was great fun to use it again – it’s very versatile and can make quite fine lines. I added watercolour afterwards…and the sketch ended up almost like the one I did the previous week! – although the ink also ran a bit as it is slightly water-soluble. Next time I will be more adventurous with my choice of colouring materials.
