This is a leopard crawling up a tree. I drew this on the last day of Inktober to illustrate the prompt “crawl”.
I felt confident enough to forego any pencil sketch and drew directly with the Pentel black ink Brushpen, and it went all right! I then used the light grey ink Brush Writer from Kuretake for shadows.
This is trumpet player Dizzy Gillespie which I drew on the day 19 of Inktober 2020 to illustrate the prompt “dizzy”.
I chose a very dark photo as reference, so I could leave only a few blank spots on the paper for the highlights and plaster the rest with my black ink Pentel Brushpen, which ran out of ink right near the end!
I made a simpler version of “two cranes on a pine tree” which I drew for a friend last year.
I used black, grey and ink brush pens, drew on a watercolour postcard, and painted a gold outline with a thin brush and liquid gold ink.
I made another ink drawing of a crane after some Chinese brushwork piece by artist Nanrae.
On a taupe toned paper I used a black ink brush pen, my Kuretake Light Grey and Geranium Red BrushWriters, and applied gold paint with a brush.
Finally, I went back to the piece afterwards to paint the body of the crane with a white ink Kuretake brushpen.
I gave the framed piece to Shadi.
