On Stage

12x6 India ink on Fabriano 140 lb cold press watercolor paper done today.  I first sketched the singer with one of my new black waterproff Lictin pens (Micron substitute) .03, available in a pack of 7 pens from Amazon for $9.99.  Next I used black Higgins ink and a #8 round brush to paint her and the crazy background.  Photo courtesy WetCanvas weekend drawing event, host Harry Hamlin, UK.  In this 2 hour timed event participants must select an image then execute it or photograph what they got done at the time mark.  This one took me one hour.
