Sometimes, all I need is a little traditional pen and ink. The tactile feel of pen against paper as it lays down a line feels like meditation. Drawing brings me completely to the moment, observing every plane and angle. No fancy fountain pens for this one, I return to a favorite Pitt pen, India ink is a good option, that does not smear as I work. Many like microns for this line work, but I prefer the feel of the Pitt pen. In fact, I never use microns though I have many. Life's too short to settle for less. Painting number 4835 in 4835 days.
