The best of... part deux.
The inks.
I am always whining about ink. “It’s so scary!” “I’m afraid.” I can’t do it.”
Lies, all lies.
After my last post (all pencil sketches as you may recall) I started thinking about the “finished art” I’ve attempted in 2024. I was surprised to see so many.
It is true (that is, not a lie) that I don’t feel quite right about ink. I’m not “myself” as it were. I’m wandering around in the desert. All of which I’m pretty sure is due to lack of practice.
Here are a few inked up cartoons that careened toward the checkered flag of finished art without cracking up completely.
And, to update, where we stand on resolutions for 2025 thus far:
Resolution #1: Less roughly speaking, more rough drawing.
Resolution #2 : Ink! Daily if possible.
And on that note, I bid adieu for 2024. See you next year!
