This was a pleasant hour sketching this nuthatch using my new pen, a Lumos Pro fineliner, with some ink washes. After having Covid for the past week, this was the first time I could sit and concentrate on art. Must be feeling better today.
I’m still working on this seasonal piece every few months. I get one season nearly finished and then stop, wait a few months for the season to change, and partly complete the next. I decided I’ll wait until the end of summer before filling in the details that will connect it all together.
A chicken, getting ready to turn, and two snoozing ducks. Plus, I bought a goofy pen, the Majohn Q1 with a bent (fude) nib because of its unusual size and the large ink capacity. So far, I really like it. I also picked up this little Lamy mechanical pencil, which is designed for children. Works for me.
