I painted window splashes in Portland for 33 years. Now I teach. I inked (painted) my character outlines with single stroke flats and liners. Recently I am learning to work small again. I like using the Japanese brush pens

The straight, parallel lines you pull at 8:02!! Absolutely amazing…

'Hooray for less trash going into the landfills." THANK YOU! My soul dies a little every time I throw away a micron, so I started using a quill.

Cool! I very much liked those strokes. Brushes make it so distinct and dramatic.

This is one of the best videos focused on inking that I've seen over the last year. I don't know why the algorithm didn't bring it to me sooner. I look forward to watching your other videos.

Really great inking. Magnificent brush work - It's Rapidograph not Rapidiograph!
