Let's Draw Davis sketchcrawl happened yesterday. We met at the UCD Arboretum and sketch the plants.

Moleskine sketchbook, TWSBI fountain pen with Noodlers Kiawi Pecan Ink

I enjoy the photo offerings at the various USFWS Flickr pages, many of the photos free to use under the CC by 2.0 license.

My recent acquisition of the new Lamy has made me a bit nostalgic for the other fountain pens I've let languish in my room, un-inked. This morning I inked up my TWSBI mini with Noodler's Walnut ink for this sketch. Though this ink does bleed with water, the bleeding is not too evident in this sketch.
