It's a 2 ink day!

So I'm very please with how the ink pens are working. They are very sensitive giving you the ability to change thickness and such. These two were done today during lunch. I dig the coffee one...the protruding chin makes me think the guy lives in the rich areas of Charlotte.

There Is A Slight Chill In The Air...

It was a warm 16 degrees coming into work today. This past Saturday the running group did a lap around the booty loop here in Charlotte with it at 18 degrees. Comparing the two days I find today colder since I am not exerting the energy that I did on Saturday. I am fat fingering my typing since my hands are frozen.

I did get some drawing done this weekend. I first sketched it out and then inked it. I still need a lot more time practicing the inking and you can see but I am thrilled at the improvements overall.

Enjoy!

Edit: Corrected an issue with the drawing above...

And so it begins!

So for 2010 I had three resolutions, that's right three things that I really want to do. Okay..so I already do two of them and used to do the third...

1) Honestly run 400 miles in one year. I've done this 2 years out of the last 5 years...I came really close last year, 25 miles close!
2) Really improve on my art! Well duh! I've been doing that!
3) Pick up my guitar again and play! Now that will be the challenge!

But the running has been elusive...with colds and cold weather, I've put it off. This Saturday the running group I run with, one of two that provides me stress relief, will get together and pound out 3 miles at the booty loop in Charlotte. So it begins there...

The drawing is a thing I love to do and sometimes hate how I draw. The only way to improve is to practice, practice, and after that...practice. So I went to the local art store, Cheap Joes, and as usual they had some awesome prices on cool stuff! I bought a set of Pigma Micron ink pens, ranging from sizes 01, 03 and 05. They are different than that of pencils, or markers. So without further wait...oh wait...I also changed my signature on my sketches...so without further waiting...cheers!
