#InkTober day 28 ~ Pear Group

6x9 ink and watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper done today for day 28 of #InkTober, a yearly challenge for artists to do one work per day in ink.  My favorite pen is Pigma Micron 01 by Sakura that makes a very fine line.  These pears will be featured on WetCanvas current weekend drawing event.  It has been awhile since I've painted any of them.  These works with watercolor and ink used to draw outlines is called ink and line wash work.
