Pen and ink is one of my favorite mediums on the street - especially for architecture. This fountain pen is my TWSBI mini in silver, with an extra fine nib. I have De Atramentis Archive Ink loaded in this pen, for those fine sketchy lines I don't want to move. After I complete my initial sketch with this pen I switch to a broad nib and a soluble ink, so I can move that ink with a little water to achieve my mid-tones. I had to tuck myself in close to the bank building for shade and shelter from the wind, seemed like the wind never did let up! Painting number 3043 in 3043 days.
