Thanks! It's just an inexpensive, pointy-type dip pen (I'm unsure of the technical language here!).

As for how she could sit still for so long: she's good at being a model! It's a real skill and she excels at it. Always a pleasure to draw her.

Thank you so much! I love poses like this and she's fantastic to draw.

This is really nice! Love it.

That's such a lovely thing to read. Thank you.

One of the nice things about life drawing is how accepting it is of all body types. Obviously we draw from a pool of people with a lot of body confidence, and that means some body types are overrepresented. But for the artists, we celebrate every body our models allow us to draw. If anything, it's the weird bodies we like best. There's beauty in all of them.

Ah! Lines making up a human, as opposed to lines drawn by a human. Gotcha, thanks!

...what a world to live in, eh?

Thank you! I'm making a virtue of not being able to draw as straight as I would like...

 

Grace, come here! There's a sinister-looking kid I want you to see...

Yay! Inky people of the world unite!

The composition and feel of this piece are really lovely. Also it made me want to replay Disco Elysium which is also a bonus.

This is amazing. Love the work.

 

Portrait of the phenomenal @TheArtisticPoledancer@pixelfed.social. Look her up, she's great!

 
 
 
 

Inspired by a talk I went to where a scientist was explaining how you can prove that animals use binocular vision for depth perception. You give them teeny tiny 3D glasses and show them images of food that you can only see if you're using both eyes together. And yes, cuttlefish do it.

 
 

Hand-drawn; drawn hand.

 
 

Have I ever seen a piano? Yes, I have. Do I have one in my house? Yes, I do. Do I know what one looks like? Um, probably, why don't I just start drawing anyway and find out...
