Mini Castle

[Balaji]

I sketched this a year ago, based on a pen, ink and ink wash demo on YouTube by Stephen Travers. I attempted the same as a pen & ink sketch (that is, without washes and only ink lines). I hope to do this as a watercolour some day. By the way it is approximately 4" x 4.5" and was done with a Staedtler 0.1 pigment liner.

Very nice Balaji. I took a look at Stephan Travers' YouTube channel and it looks very interesting. I'm looking forward to watching some of his demos.

Thank you Anne.
I am glad that you checked out Stephen Travers' YouTube channel. He has already posted lots of demo videos and covers a variety of aspects of pen and ink sketching. and he keeps adding more videos quite regularly.

Jo, this change in technique has been forced on me. Over the last few years I have developed a tremor in my hand, which has progressively increased. I am constantly experimenting to see how I can cope with it and continue to sketch.

Lovely work, I really like the hatching.

Will check out the YT channel. This is amazing. Your style is wonderful ; it is detailed, but just enough not to be " busy".
