- Have you ever tried to draw with ink that allows you to add tone by simply using a brush with water? It's a great way to quickly improve your drawing by simplifying your tools and allowing you to travel lighter by taking less with you on location. I show you how to turn a negative into a positive. Your drawing will never be the same.

I just bought my first fountain pen. I say first because I know this will be an obsession. I bought a Kaweco Brass Sport and love it and I love doing sketches using water afterwards. It’s so fun, no colour mixing. Easy to take with me too. Love your videos!
OH NO! And down the rabbit hole you go... or should I say down the fountain pen hole!?! Go get 'em @birbtunes and thanks so much for watching. Draw on!!
Good tips and fun to watch as always!
That's great you kept doing what you like to do and what you are talented with to continue to make works of art. 👍👏
If only I had more time to do my art! I would like to study this when I can. Thank you. Sounds like you're a good teacher too!
Thank you for inspiring me to practice this beautiful technique 🙏💟
Love the video and the drawing. I will remember this technique during this years Inktober.
Yes, that's a perfect time to use it Karen!
Wow, this is really nice! I have lot's of fountainpens and even more inks, so I think I'm gonna try this next weekend.
I'm really hard to myself, everything I made should at least be perfect, maybe this helps me to let that go a bit.
That's the best way to go about drawing, or any art, really. Start where you're at... but make a start. As the saying goes, progress, not perfection. Draw On!!!
Maravilloso 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I use both kinds of ink. Waterproof for line and wash, when I intend to add watercolour. And recently I discovered that there is such a thing as bi-coloured inks (f.e. by Diamine) which are fun when the hues change depending on the amount of water.
Thanks for the heads-up on the Diamine inks, I'm gonna check them out. Draw On!
When I was a kid we had Learn to draw with John Gnagy.
I haven't heard of John before... where were you living that showed him?
@@SteveAtkinsonFineArt New York City. John Gnagy had drawing kits that were sold in stores.
Long time ago.
Hi, if for example some drips of ink fall on a table, on the floor, on a thirt or other objects, is it possible to clean it and how? There is difference in between inks about easy to clean? I mean if I can permanently damage objects around home. Thx 🙏
I've noticed that some inks exhibit unpredictable color separation when water is applied. Could you recommend inks that provide more consistent results?
In terms of non waterproof inks that are lightfast, are they considered less valuable. For example if I use an India ink like Higgins non waterproof or Tom Norton's Walnut Drawing Ink that is non waterproof because water can affect it is it considered less valuable than one done with waterproof ink? Especially if it is a delicate line intensive drawing ?
No, a non waterproof ink is no less valuable as a waterproof ink, as long as they are lightfast rated as permanent or archival. That's something you want to make sure of before you do a drawing with it. Higgins ink is not very forthcoming with their lightfast ratings, but on Amazon the description says it is fadeproof, so you should be good to go.
@@SteveAtkinsonFineArt Thanks for taking the time and the information. Appreciate it
