FPN's PEN ART GALLERY

[parkerwasmyfirstlove]

I like the muesli-monster in a honey cup. You should think about the series in one style: children's breakfasts:)

​Good work!

You're right, good idea. But despite having three kids and making/ having breakfast with them, I don't know a bout typical children breakfasts...

You can take in the basis not your children, you can take for idea the national food of different countries: Switzerland, Mexico, France, England, USA, Spain, Germany, India, Japan, China and so on.

This are the sketches I did during my commute:

This is the typical landscape/ scenery here. This time I used a vintage diary (and also bic ballpoint pens) which is fun to use, but gives me also some unpredictable results.

 

I did this today, more looking at the details than at the whole scenery and it was very satisfying.

 

Also this is my current sketching kit for the commute. I use black Sailor nanoink in that AL-Star.

On my way back from the gym by bike this evening, I couldn't resist to quickly sketch this sleepy construction site.

[Andrew_L]

You are cool!

@ parkerwasmyfirstlove --

Very nice work. What are the sketchbooks you're using? Clearly the paper seems FP friendly....

Thank you Andrew.

 

And Ruth, the sketchbooks are mostly Seawhite of Brighton. They don't take much wet media, but are cool with the fountain pens.

This guy was so cool. I could sketch him thoroughly. I added the colours on my way back home on the train and the black contours when I was home.

 

I'm thinking about switching to my EF nib in this Lamy, but I also use it for writing addresses on envelopes because of the nanonik and I don't want an EF for that, neither another pen with nanoink, nor switching nibs constantly, hm?

[Andrew_L]

You can buy another Lamy pen with an EF nib, but the Lamy nibs size are not stable. Often EF nib writes as M or F.

Sketch with TWSBI 540 and vintage french flexible nib.

Very cool.

I swapped the f for an ef btw. And I'm not sure whether I like it that much. I just might swab it back.

[Andrew_L]

One of my favorite ink.

Lovely thanks 😊

This was my view at breakfast. So much more to look at than the sand, sea & sky out of the other window.

[Scribs]

That's definitely a view that encourages the imagination to concoct all manner of stories.

 

And I can almost feel the heat reflecting off the walls...

 

Thanks for sharing

Lovely artwork everywhere! by everyone.

Wonderful urban sketching, Parker as usual! The number on each work, aside from the date, are you aiming for a certain goal or is it a particular series in a project? (Just curious, and stickybeaking ).

I admire all (ALL) of your work you put up. But I LOVE THAT INK WELL! Could you please show us a close up photo if you get a chance?
