So, ultimately, to color these drawings, I would have to ink them of pass over them again with a pencil, I think. It's this last step that I should learn to do better. I loose some "spark of life" every time I go over my originals with multiliners. It would be nice if I could draw directly in inks, but I cannot bring myself to do so, especially when working on a very complex and big drawing....Asterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10205216298123223732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837171621793043622.post-29696794547029629522013-09-20T22:57:29.591-05:002013-09-20T22:57:29.591-05:00I'm a pen person through and through, and I re...I'm a pen person through and through, and I really have to work to get my pencil people not stiff.

They all have a "feel" and some just seem better than others.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047498561479955823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837171621793043622.post-12827672066984559562013-09-20T10:41:33.859-05:002013-09-20T10:41:33.859-05:00Thank you!

Maybe I realized the same thing you did and just didn't know it.Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10247722361880680989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837171621793043622.post-75034069580017547432013-09-19T18:05:13.961-05:002013-09-19T18:05:13.961-05:00hello,

These are each lovely, quite inviting.Tammie Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11279605745446513635noreply@blogger.com
