Wow. Stealthy is right. I wasn't familiar with that ink at ALL! Thanks! (although my husband will NOT thank you....).

And it's a great drawing, BTW. I'm totally behind on these, and haven't gotten any of the few I have done uploaded yet....

Lovely ink, indeed. This makes my life a little more complicated.

I know. How dare life get in the way of our fun . . .

Blame haruka337 - I was kindly sent a sample ages ago and bought a bottle at first sight. I use it more than Cigar, partly because I like it sooo much and partly because it's easily available.

 

Buy some, You know it makes sense

Though I've read about them on here, I just looked into these for the first time. The price is very friendly so I think I'll get the hunter and cherry -- no, orange -- no gummiberry -- no, maroon.

[Tas]

Ha!

I like this enabling game

Gorgeous! :cO

Thank you. You've started a ripple effect with that ink.

I love the lemons, Tas. Who would have thought that those colours would work so well for lemons. Being such gorgeous inks helps, of course.

 

Here's my #20 Back view of a chair.

 

 

- Pencil to get proportions

- Pen: Italix Parson's Essential EF

- Ink: J. Herbin Lie de Thé (which is currently coming out rather wet and dark in the Italix)

- Paper: Moleskine Pocket Sketchbook

 

The chair is one I drew yesterday while my wife and I were enjoying the luxury of our posh hotel room before going down to dinner with 7+ course tasting menu and matched wines. Lovely.

I can see that you're struggling to find the right words here. You want to use "and" instead of "no."

[snowbear]

Nice chair @milkb0at; it sounds like a wonderful time.

 

 

Here's my #21.

It's all go here. Lovely work everyone. Must try dots. Looks like fun

Must also try a 7+ course dinner!

 

Erm, I went slightly off piste (and a little moody) with "Keys"
