Ink a tree

(Lone tree)
(Vines on tree)
    I'm getting more work done in pencil and ink. These may be on my store as prints soon.
There was some old forgotten nibs in a box that I just found. They are extra fine nibs from Hunt/Speedball, #102.
Great dip pen nibs to work with.

It seems this old house in Colorado needs endless work. So I can only draw on certain days when I'm not so tired. It's easier working in the studio now. The clutter is for the most part cleared away, and I can walk thru it. We have been here a year, and it may take about 10 more years to get it together.

To me this is important.

PayPal puts that payment into my account that I have with them. They alert me that you bought that piece of art. I like this arrangement. Soon, I'll be in Colorado and am looking forward to the mountains and tall trees we have all around where we live. Last year, I started a new series called Colorado. These drawings are simple ink sketches that has been one of my most rewarding.  Ther...

  'Two trees' 4x6 ink sketch    This drawing has been with me for a while. I have taken it off the wall while re-organizing the studio. I'll miss it, but there's much more coming down too, and I'm getting ready to spend the summer in Colorado.   I have countless boxes of art supplies and tools that have to be packed. It's worth the effort though. OK.. short one this time. Got to find my toothbrush and run.
