Old Ink in Ink

Items on the Hunt list were "old" and "ink".  I have some old Daler Rowney Acrylic Ink in bottles so sketched them.  I sketched my hand for "old".  The inks are probably 10 years or so old???   Rae Andrews suggested the bright acrylics for under painting for pastels.  I tried but put them on too thick I think and filled the tooth of the surface so the pastels wouldn't stick.  I should try again.

You can see some of Rae's demos on YouTube here

Back to sketches....

For Scavenger Hunt 147

Number 1 ink - acrylic ink done in Neon  Ink, Blick gray markers and Micron 03



Number 2 old - my hand sketched on the same page with a Pentel RSVP Ballpoint pen.

  1. I like your colorful acrylic ink bottles. You should try using them again. It sounds like it should work well. Good job on the "old" hand.

  2. Joan, thanks. I hope to get motivated to paint more again. We shall see.
