It certainly does warrant being on the gallery Carol. I’m so pleased your confidence has led to this smashing ink sketch. It’s a super start….directional strokes in the hills, movement in the water and depth of tone in the foreground bank and grasses. Look forward to seeing more!

Sorry Margerie I didn't think the first comment had gone through.

Whilst having another decluttering session a couple of days ago I came across a small tin of pen nibs and several dip pens. I had used them in my college days for calligraphy but never tried drawing with ink. In fact I did this sketch with Pitt sepia artist pens which I have had for ages but not used. I'm unsure whether this sketch warrants a place on the gallery but I have spent most of this weekend experimenting with pen and ink for the first time and am absolutely hooked!!
