quick inktober effort before work (shot with my iphone so sort of blurry

@Lee-White I like how you've been handling ink in a similar way as to how you handle your watercolors. For some reason, I don't tend to think of ink being done in that way, so this is refreshingly expanding my mind towards ink usage. Thanks!

@QuietYell Thanks! I think in terms of tone and not really in line. I've always been more comfortable painting than drawing. Glad you like the approach. It's a monotype in ink which is a blast to do!

[QuietYell]

@Lee-White so do you pick out of the wash with a brush/rag/sponge/etc. wet with water or are you using non-water-soluble ink and do it some other way? Similarly, do you thin out your ink? I'm familiar with gouache and watercolor, but are there any things to consider when doing this with ink?

I think I tend to create based upon line, but I think I am ultimately more of a painter than drawer — maybe I'm just stronger at painting than drawing currently; though, I am in the process of pushing my drawing. Interestingly, I am wanting to do more tone/shape/volume based "drawing" rather than line based drawing. Generally, I block-out the shadow areas by drawing their boundaries with lines then fill, but I think it would be advantageous to create the image from toned areas and no lines.

Using a brush pen isn't nearly as scary as I convinced myself it would be.

thanks @Charlie-Eve-Ryan . it encourages me because I still feel so bad and uncomfortable at inking! my pencil sketch always looks better
I have a hard time stopping treating the pen as if it was a pencil
