Didn't quite enjoy the way the lamy ink behaves on the moleskine sketchbook ...

In both cases, and for a fleeting moment, they looked nice, but then I never know when to stop.

It started as a contour drawing but I got distracted with the shadows...

Black pen on moleskine

The moleskine is getting real fat and I'm having problems when scanning - so I'm posting the photo and I'll post the scan on flickr. Besides, the general colour is more accurate this way.

EDM #64 'Draw your sink'

pen on watercolour stained moleskine

I may be working on it yet. Or maybe not. I was only going to draw my sink after all, and the light and my point of view were changing all the time. I'm tired.

Since I use to spend the first 5-10 minutes scaring myself at the sight of the blank page and wondering how on earth I'm going to draw that every time I'm about to draw something, I've decided to record the first mark on the paper for any drawing (It's easier on Flickr with 'notes'). Maybe I'll learn something. Maybe not.

I don't think I actually see anything 'til I get into the kitchen to make my first cup of coffee.
(and no, there's no giant mutant faucet in there,
I just got the proportions wrong :) ...)

I asked my mother to look for (and bring me) an old box with these much loved playmobil toys... The proportions are off (the figure is supposed to be slightly smaller than the horse, and his head is too big) but I need to show something for her effort ;) ...
(Note: The little marks on the top of his head are teeth marks...)
