This is an older copy of a pen & ink i did for a couple in Corning back in 1987.the original had cleaner lines and wa done using a rapidograph. This is a copy that was several generations of xerox's later so some lines are thicker now.
Artist Reply: Thanks Joke~ I used to illustrate daily til my accident and then intermittently as my hand improved. Now it is going to require more microsurgery so I am hoping to be able to recover faster and regain more usage to sketch again.
Artist Reply: Thanks Emily~ I am just getting ready to start sketching again, but have to have hand surgery [hoping it wont make me lose usage again] Last time I couldnt draw well for 6 yrs...But I love drawing so will find a way :)
Very good drawing. I especially love sketching, you know-
Artist Reply: Thankyou Armando~ I just got a new set of Koor-I-Noor's to start sketching again! I always liked it but lost my drawing pens moving a few years ago.. Now i am getting supplies for starting over~! :)
Artist Reply: Thankyou Lucia! At the time I was talking to a shop owner about doing a pic for them when this contractor stepped up and said he wanted one as a present for his wife and gave me the address so I parked across the street from their home and sketched this for him.
