I'm not sure when it occurred to me. Maybe it was criticism that a working artist passed my way. I set the pens down for a month while we were in Nice and let things "sit."

 

The Muse visited and I started thinking of some really goofy ideas. I said to myself "stuff 'um! I'm doing something silly and I'm doing it for myself."

 

To explain what these were I did a title page to each drawing. As if it really explained anything, that is.

 

I first shared these with friends in England during our weekly Zoom calls. We had a "Show and Tell" kind of setup. It was a great way to get beyond the loneliness and to spend time with friends, even if it weren't in person.

...because I loathe them and refuse to draw one, instead I drew a Baka Kujira; a yōkai that takes the form of an animated whale skeleton.

No encuentro las avenidas, pero sé que la ciudad sigue donde estaba.

Over a year ago when we were confined to avoid spreading a potentially deadly virus, I knew much of my photographic adventures would need to be curtailed. In similar time, something by Stephan Marjoram inspired me to fill a bit of time doing something creative. So I took up ink drawing. Just to see what I could do. And with zero photography projects in the queue, I wanted to fill this space with something. So here goes. I start out by aping M.Marjoram and, as you will later see, I take inspiration from many other sources.

Giving credit where credit is due, this is a landscape created using Aaron Blaise's Photoshop Wet Media Brushes and copying his basic technique. This is my first attempt at creating a Pen and Ink effect. For more info, check out my blog at sydspix.wordpress.com/2015/03/07/how-to-create-a-watercol....
