passion will be true leonard cohen my second day with inktober 2023 and the prompt is spider the ideas are here so all is good it just feels so right to be drawing painting again i m just a very messy painter now the room is a mess so guess what i lll be doing next lol i have 3 kuretake water brushes that i pre filled with water the first one received 1 drop of black ink the 2nd one 3 drops of black ink and the 3rd one 5 drops this way i have immediate access to 3 different levels of grey and if i find that the grey is not intense enough i just go back in the sky i went in twice using the lowest value brush at the national gallery in ottawa maman the giant spider sculpture stands just outside the entrance and what a scene it makes ink dr ph martin s black star pen white pens tachikawa

artist would perish dreams are the initial catalysts which launch us into a position of faith that tells us we can accomplish that which is not already done roger asselin i ve decided to jump into the inktober prompt even though i am 7 days late having retired let s say that procrastination rules the house rules our habits rules my painting habits as i have not painted in a while my eye coordination is not up to par and my wetting ability either but even with mistakes we always learn don t we at least i got the general idea of what i wanted to do so that is a good start take care everyone our world is changing i wanted to share this thoughtful philosophy that margaret mead said years ago anthropologist margaret mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture the student expected mead to talk about fishhooks or clay pots or grinding stones but no mead said that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur thighbone that had been broken and then healed mead explained that in the animal kingdom if you break your leg you die you cannot run from danger get to the river for a drink or hunt for food you are meat for prowling beasts no animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal a broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell has bound up the wound has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts mead said we are at our best when we serve others be civilized ink dr ph martin s black star pen white pens tachikawa nikko g pointed nib pilot falcon soft ef japan sketchbook moleskine art collection japanese album location from

fountain pen with zebra g nib les coquillages dans ses mains je ne sais pourquoi changeaient de destin elle les caressait les palpait elle en extirpait la poésie cachée ils ont sûrement un langage eux qui subissent les marées et voyagent les plus ondulés quelle merveille ils chuchotent tous à l oreille marie dionne peintre poète artisane sainte barbe 1993 i ve been fiddling with the jinhao x750 fountain pen in order to modify it to fit a zebra g nib instead of its regular nib why because the zebra g nib is a very flexible nib which is usually used with dip pens not fountain pens and i don t really like dip pens as you constantly need to dip your pen in ink so why not convert it the zebra g nib is very cheap it comes in a box of 10 nibs on amazon for about 19 cad and the jinhao fountain pen is also a very cheap fountain pen on amazon about 15 cad so if i am to break or damage the fountain pen it is not a great loss but thankfully nothing bad happened and the pen is working very well thank you as you can see below just by pressing harder the line thickens and when you lessen the pressure the line is very very thin nice the only drawback is i could not really draw very fast as it seems as though the ink takes more time to flow not a great deal but i will still tweak it tomorrow moleskine sketchbook 3 x 5 ink deatramentis document ink black fountain pen jinhao with modified

extraordinary things but do ordinary things with intensity emily carr testing out different green swatches today for my next trip to costa rica this year these look quite boring but they are quite difficult to do well for me anyway i could have chosen for each swatch more saturation or less more intensity for one colour as opposed to the other so i tried to do to get consistently equal washes in both colours that was the main difficulty some of the colours that really stand out for me are the following the spring green olive khaki dark green rich green mahogany grey and moss green generally lemon yellow and cobalt green gave the lightest greens and the hansa medium made the brightest greens the raw sienna gave the dullest greens and the phthalo green gave the most intense bright greens i have always bought the ds ultramarine but the last one has been granulating which i do not like so i did another ultramarine by w n which i prefer the prussian ds makes gorgeous greens i will add this colour to my palette for costa rica in april if you like learning you could look at shari s online classes this is one of the exercises in her new trees course she is well organized and her classes are always fun especially since they are online ds daniel smith dv da vinci h holbein w n winsor newton paper 12 x9 hahnemulhe cp share this email a link to a friend opens in new

canada in the raw not because she is canada but because she s something sublime that you were born into some great rugged power that you are a part of emily carr here is a small sketch of today s small pleasures with a small clip we are leaving in april and i am preparing my painting paraphernalia it grows and shrinks as i put in stuff and then take it out hah the story of my life i should say the question of the day was how many clips should i bring and what size clip should i bring it seems as if today i do have time on my side i had the time to ask myself these silly and mundane questions but still necessary questions for a painter just imagine when i think of people all over the world that are going through a rough patch war hunger migration poverty emily carr s quote feels

wrote about my scanner problems as i have resolved them so here goes mac os ventura and silverfast software 8 8 on my epson perfection v600 scanner which i love by the way so i twiddled around with the settings and looked up info on google hah who doesn t do that nowadays anyway i listened to one of the specialists argh everything that he mentioned was causing more problems than resolving them so yesterday i started tweaking the settings again and eureka now everything is fine can t believe it under preferences cms input at epson perfection v600 reflective internal at epson srgb and that s it everything is back to normal so this is the image that i tested everything with this is my chill mama that started out as a tree and ended up as the chill mama sometimes i just let my brain and

matters it s what you see henry david thoreau what better way than to paint what you long for this painting is vastly overdone in many places but i am happy with it i like the grunginess of it all it

hannah leave a comment on flowerets ii creativity is merely a plus name for regular activity any activity becomes creative when the doer cares about doing it right or better author unknown my flowerets in colour i tested out 2 new colours today lavender which is an opaque watercolour and cobalt green then i got going with all of the other colours that i felt like putting in must be because of the weather outside cold and snow with no sun this is my way of enlightening my days to note that moleskine sketchbooks are not really made for watercolours but they are definitely made for drawing with a fountain pen or technical pen as the paper has a velvety finish that makes ink go so smoothly it s as if you are drawing with butter and i m still having problems with the calibration of my scanner since i have updated to ventura humph the background paper is turning dark grey once i post it on wordpress so i have to calibrate each channel rgb individually a real pain if ever some of you
