Description My scanner put lines in here that aren't in the original! I'm still getting used to using pen and ink that's why you see my thumbprints in some areas. lol I drew this one without a reference, and feel like it came out pretty well.

Thanks! My paper's probably going to be 6 pages or longer...the bad thing is that it only has to be 3!! I've found a LOT of info for what I'm writing about. In case you would like to know, I'm writing about serial killers from the 1700's and 1800's. I've found 22 so far, and 8 of those are women! When I get the paper done, I'll email it to you if you want to read it. -If you don't that's ok...I'd be afraid to read it!

I bet you are. A term paper is not easy to write! I LOVED writing them in college. (I minored in English)

I love writing them too. Especially when I can choose the subject, but I wish we had more time though. I know it's only because summer quarter is so short, but DANG!

Well I can’t think of one bad thing to say – so I will just have to be nice – not an easy task for me – really!

I am starting to think – ink is your thing!

You have the pens – now you just need to take the leap and add a bottle of India Ink and some brushes to go with it. Maybe even try a few nibs! Also with the bottled ink you can add a wash for light shading too! Just don't mix your ink brushes and your paint brushes.

Have fun!

Thank you. Nibs scare me. I didn't realize you could make a wash with ink. How do you know so much? lol

With India Ink you can mix with water the same way as with watercolors - only difference is you get various degrees of black.

Thanks! I just started by outlining a face in pencil, then got out the magic pens and went from there. I think I surprised myself. lol

You're very welcome! The pencil was a really good idea. Don't commit until you're sure...as you can be.lol
Didn't surprise me tho'. You're very good at that style of drawing.
