Little Hands Studio News ; Drawing with pens and ink

Pens and ink are news in the studio. This drawing is made with gel pens and felt tip fine liner pens. 

 It seems like time to hunker down and put hours into learning how various mediums behave and how appropriate they are for my ideas.


In the mean time I'm packing materials for an upcoming move, so I'm going to pack the looms, yarns and other bulky materials and try to keep a slimmed down group of working stuff.





Although I have used a cross, I purposely want to set it off center and give it a bit more abstracted position and also add an asymmetrical setting.







It takes a lot of effort to keep the drawing relatively consistent so that the colors don't drift from shades into tints, and so that the color combinations remain vibrant.
