1/30/14 Diamine Chocolate Brown, Iroshizuku Kiri-Same and Diamine Grey inks, Canson mixed-media sketchbook (20-min. pose) |
Ever since last October, against all the “rules,” I’ve been using a fountain pen for some of
the longer poses at life-drawing sessions. (It’s as rebellious as this good
girl gets.) Today my favorite Sailor pen filled with my favorite Diamine Chocolate Brown ink ran dry
right after I started a 20-minute pose (at left), so I had to continue it with Pilot Iroshizuku Kiri-Same, which has such a pale wash (as I discovered previously) that I had to help the shading along with a light gray Zig marker and the Diamine Grey ink I keep in a waterbrush. To my surprise, I like the mix of the warm
and cool together. Sometimes running out of a favorite turns into a good
experiment.
