quick (2-6 min) ink & brush(s). Fooling around with brushes, each feels & holds the ink so differently. Great to have all these great JKPP references to work from....for this series of quick sketches, I've been working backwards thru the One photo of each member thread . . . feel free to 'tag" yourself if you're amongst them ~ 99 down, 550+ to go :)
I knew the Ink Blot Girl was trouble the moment she walked through my door, but what else could I do? I'm a sucker.

Annapaaravai In Indian Ink Art
The Hamsa (from Sanskrit हंस haṃsa) is an aquatic bird, often considered to be a goose or sometimes a swan. It is used in Indian and Southeast Asian culture as a symbol and a decorative element.
The word is cognate with Latin "(h)anser", Greek "χήν", German "Gans", English "goose" and Russian "гусь" (all meaning a goose). Standard translations of the term from Sanskrit are as a goose first, and swans, other aquatic birds, or mythical birds as an alternative. It is normally considered by ornithologists to be most likely to be the bar-headed goose (Anser indicus), a migratory bird that is commonly found in winter in the north of the subcontinent.
The origins of the hamsa are obscure and certainly prehistoric. The symbol of the outspread hand, usually pointed downward is found throughout the Middle East, on jewelry, woven into fabric, nailed over household doors, dangling from the rearview mirrors of taxis and trucks. In the Islamic tradition, the talisman is known alternately as the Hand of Fatima, after Muhammad’s daughter. In Hebrew culture, the hamsa (or hamesh) is known as the Hand of Miriam, after the sister of Moses.
It is the vahana of goddess kalaivni . It is a bird belonging to the category of anna paravai which has got a special power to separate the water from milk in a mixture of both in other words it has got the capacity to grab the good one and leave the un wanted one then it denotes the colour of pure whiteness and be its symbol .

This is a page of my history homework. Yes, I do happen to sit in my classes and do doodles of crazy designs and different shapes and sizes. You would never know this is homework unless you really examine the white areas!
I am not a fan of tattoos but I have to admit I found this guy's tattoos interesting.
A wonderful display of the indigenous culture, they had 3 beautiful days of dancing and entertainment.

Today. Urban Sketchers Australia in Sydney are going to Cockatoo Island In Sydney Habour on a Crane Crawl - to draw the industrial cranes that were left there from when it was a shipyard. We have been planning this for a long time and I have wanted to draw on bigger (than my Moleskine watercolour sketchbook) paper and with different materials. I am taking ink bottles, the bamboo pen Liz bought back from Singapore, Neocolour Soluble crayons, Conte charcoal sticks and some heavy graphite pencils.
Which ones will I use? - who knows...... watch this space.....
Noodler's Ink in Saguaro Wine. Great color and its something fun and different for writing. The local pen store is discontinuing this brand so I bought up the last of this color. They had already sold out of the other color I like from this brand.
Most effective seen at original size.
Small 5x7 note card sketch with a small brush & India ink.
As I recall, this was quick sketch based upon a Rembrandt ink study
for the purpose of learning speed in washes with a few fine details at the end
with the point of the brush.
Oh, I see there are a few touches of white gouache.
