Ink life drawing


This is a quick life drawing that I did using a dip pen and ink to create the initial lines and then once I had got enough detail in, I added in blue ink with a brush to emphasize parts of the drawing. I think the variations in the thickness of lines help make the piece more dynamic and interesting and the drips of the black ink help add texture into the piece. I also think the piece works well in the fact that some parts of the figure are easily distinguishable whereas other parts are made of drips so the figure doesn't have any distinguishable hands or feet but I don't think that matters because you don't notice unless you look at it for a while.
