385 Self portrait #33 Drawing with fineliner pen and india ink


2015-03-10aIt’s been 3,5 months since I last did a self-portrait. I didn’t even realize that. I started out with this as an ink drawing, but was not very happy about it. It was imprecise and a little carelessly made, so I spontanously grabbed a fineliner pen and started drawing on top of it.. I think it improved, but I have yet to learn to use the fineliner. I think the key (for me atleast) is to draw quickly and without thinking.. If i think too much about it it ends up a static contour-drawing and in pen it somehow get’s super heavy and weird that way…

Anyway – here’s to experimenting.
