It’s a sad fact, but my hands were too stiff to do any bookbinding today: clearly I overdid it at the weekend. So I turned to sketching instead…
When I sketch with ink I normally just use a pen, but today I decided to have a bash with an old fashioned dip pen and some ink. It’s turned out pretty well, but I think I’ll use less colour next time. I’m more accustomed to using watercolours, but with ink it’s more difficult to get the same effect. Practice makes perfect though, so watch this space!
